Discovering New Breakthroughs in Magnetic Surgery

Highlights of the 3rd Annual International Symposium on Magnetic Gastro-Intestinal & Colon Surgery.

Watch our new video that includes insights from attendees.

From engaged scientific sessions on case from surgeon users and discussions with ASMBS leadership to discussions on how and where magnetic surgery could fit into practice, the symposium highlighted tremendous future opportunities for the MagDI™ System.

Growing


“This gives me confidence that this is going to grow and be a whole new way of looking at the treatment of type 2 diabetes, along with lipid disorders and obesity.”

Learning


“It’s exciting to hear about real innovations and data, because that’s how we’re going to continue to grow and evolve as surgeons and bring the best forward for our patients.”

Sharing


“I love being surrounded by other physicians across the country that share the same passion that I do for bariatric surgery, and for research and technology.”

The concept of magnetic anastomosis struck me as one of those ‘aha’ moments, much like when I first saw laparoscopic surgery.

Helmuth Billy, MD

The magnetic technology is actually quite impressive…Patients are going to view this as a less invasive approach.

Richard Peterson, MD, FACS, FASMBS, MPH

This new paradigm is just amazing! It will open a lot of doors for surgeons and patients who need these procedures.

John Scott, MD, FACS, FASMBS, DABOM, DABS-FPMBS

The symposium has been spectacular…Smart surgeons are going to be demanding the [MagDI™ System] magnets for patients… it decreases the risk, the complications, the post-op problems.

Nestor De la Cruz Munoz, Jr., MD, FACS
