We are Hansen Medical

Our Mission. Our Passion.

Hansen Medical was born from the vision of creating a new generation of advanced medical robotics. A generation that would empower and protect physicians while providing enhanced care for patients. The Sensei™ Robotic Catheter System is the first realization of this vision.

The Sensei Robotic Catheter System overcomes the limitations of past technologies, facilitating accurate positioning, manipulation, and stable control of catheter and catheter-based technologies. The system provides instinctive motion™ control and navigation of flexible catheters, resulting in enhanced access, stability, and control in complex interventional procedures. The key is our proprietary Instinctive Motion™ technology that accurately and responsively translates the physician’s hand movements at the motion controller to the Artisan™ Control Catheter in the patient’s anatomy.

Natural. Ergonomic. Accurate.

This unique combination of technology and ergonomics delivers on the promise of robotically controlled surgery­–creating a solution that we believe benefits patients and physicians.
