da Vinci Surgical System
Robotic-Assisted Surgery That Puts You First
If you’re facing surgery, you probably have questions—and maybe even a few concerns. At Trinity Health Michigan, we understand that comfort, safety, and a smooth recovery matter most to you. That’s why we offer robotic-assisted surgery using the da Vinci Surgical System, including the latest da Vinci 5. This advanced technology helps our skilled surgeons perform complex procedures with greater precision and care—so you can heal faster, with less pain and fewer complications.
Whether you need colorectal, urology, bariatric, thoracic, gynecological, or general surgery, da Vinci offers a minimally invasive option designed to support your recovery and get you back to life sooner.
What Is the da Vinci Surgical System?
The da Vinci system is a state-of-the-art robotic platform that enhances your surgeon’s ability to perform delicate procedures with incredible accuracy. It’s designed to make surgery safer, more precise and less invasive—leading to better outcomes for you.
Here’s how it helps:
- Smaller incisions – Less pain, minimal scarring, and a quicker recovery.
- Enhanced precision – Robotic instruments mimic human hand movements with greater flexibility and control.
- Crystal-clear visuals – A 3D high-definition camera gives your surgeon a magnified view, 10x clearer than the human eye.
How Robotic-Assisted Surgery Works
During your procedure, your surgeon remains in the operating room, seated at the da Vinci system console. From there, they control tiny instruments that move with remarkable precision—thanks to advanced tremor-filtering technology and a full range of motion that goes beyond the human hand.
The system includes three key components:
Your surgeon remains by your side in the operating room, seated at the da Vinci system console. From the console, they control the instruments used to perform your surgery with precision.
The da Vinci vision system provides 3D high-definition visuals, offering your surgeon a crystal-clear, magnified view of the surgical area—10 times greater than what the human eye can see.
Your surgeon operates using tiny instruments designed to mimic the movements of a human hand but with a significantly greater range of motion. The system’s tremor-filtration technology ensures that each movement executes with smooth precision.
This combination allows your surgeon to operate with greater control and visibility, helping reduce complications and support a smoother recovery.
