About Intuitive Surgical About Intuitive Surgical Inc. At Intuitive®, innovating for minimally invasive care is the passion that drives us. Our robotic-assisted da Vinci® Surgical System helps empower doctors and hospitals to make surgery less invasive than an open approach. At Intuitive®, innovating for minimally invasive care is the passion that drives us. The Ion endoluminal system is Intuitive's robotic-assisted platform for minimally invasive biopsy in the lung. We built Ion on the belief that collecting lung tissue samples for biopsy could be safe and simple, even when nodules are small and located in the peripheral lung. Ion’s ultrathin, ultramaneuverable catheter allows clinicians to reach small lesions in all 18 segments of the lung.
