Mazor Robotics receives European patent titled, 'Miniature Bone-mounted Surgical Robot'

Mazor Robotics Ltd. (TASE:MZOR), a developer of innovative surgical robots and complementary products, today announced that the European Patent Office granted European Patent No. 1414362 entitled "Miniature Bone-mounted Surgical Robot," which covers the Company's flagship product, Renaissance™. Renaissance is a state-of-the-art surgical robotic system that enables surgeons to conduct spine surgeries in an accurate and secure manner.

The newly granted patent includes claims for surgical robots, including Renaissance, to be mounted to a patient's spine. This maximizes the likelihood of accurate positioning of implants during surgical procedures even if patient movement occurs.

"This patent is an important new addition to our global intellectual property portfolio and increases the value of our spine franchise," said Ori Hadomi, President & CEO of Mazor Robotics. "We believe this patent secures our unique surgical approach, as Mazor Robotics' technology is the only system which is fixated to the patient's anatomy, assuring the highest accuracy levels and reliability in spine surgeries which would be almost impossible to emulate otherwise."
