The Athens Medical Group operates two state-of-the-art Hybrid Operating Rooms in Greece, combining advanced imaging, robotic technology, and surgical precision within a single space.
These Hybrid Operating Rooms facilitate the performance of complex procedures—whether minimally invasive or open surgeries—with enhanced safety, precision, and excellent clinical outcomes for the patient.
Athens Medical Center
«PROMETHEUS» Robotic Hybrid Operating Room
The Athens Medical Center houses the certified “PROMETHEUS” Robotic Hybrid Operating Room—the only one of its kind in Greece. Equipped with the new-generation Discovery IGS 740 system from GE Healthcare, it serves as a pan-European benchmark. It has been custom-designed, exclusively for the Athens Medical Center, to address complex cardiac and vascular conditions.
Key features:
- Fully robotic operation with free movement of the angiographic system via laser technology, under conditions of high asepsis (ISO Class 5).
- Immediate conversion of the room from a hemodynamics suite into an operating room, allowing for the comprehensive management of complex cases in the same setting.
- Advanced fusion imaging (CT & angiography) and real-time 3D imaging, with a significant reduction in radiation and contrast agent.
