Interventional Systems

What Interventional Systems does

Interventional Systems (iSYS Medizintechnik GmbH) is an Austrian privately held medical device company founded in 2010 and headquartered in Kitzbühel, Austria, that develops miniature robotic systems for image-guided percutaneous interventions. Its flagship platform Micromate is the world's smallest medical robot for needle-based procedures, weighing approximately 2 kg with a footprint of 17x12x8 cm, designed to be table-mounted and to operate inside the CT gantry or between a C-arm flat panel and the patient. The system combines a proprietary hardware platform with the MicroNav planning and navigation software, integrating CT and Optical Navigation into a single surgical platform for head-to-toe interventional oncology and radiology procedures, with submillimeter demonstrated accuracy (1.33 mm lateral deviation, 1.02° angular deviation across 61 documented procedures, 100% technical success). The company also markets the iFIX disposable patient positioning system and operates the LARC Robotics spin-off focused on endourology and PCNL procedures.

The company's commercial model combines four revenue streams: capital equipment sales of Micromate, the Micromate Subscription (the first Robotics-as-a-Service offering in interventional radiology, launched September 2022 with three tiered monthly packages including disposables and software), disposable accessory sales, and OEM technology licensing. Interventional Systems has secured regulatory clearances including FDA 510(k) for both fluoroscopy and CT Optical Navigation (the first needle-based intervention robot in the US with both modalities) and NMPA Class III approval in China for the Intelligent SpinePecker via the Sino-European MicroRobotics (SEMR) joint venture with HICREN. Distribution spans direct enterprise sales and an international distributor network covering the US, Europe, China, India, South Korea, Gulf region, and Turkey, supplemented by OEM licensing deals (notably ATEC Spine's Valence robotic navigation system, launched March 2026) and a co-marketing agreement with Siemens Healthineers for angiography suite integration. The company serves interventional radiologists, interventional oncologists, and now orthopedic and endourology surgeons via subsidiaries and partners.
