India has marked a significant achievement in medical technology with the successful completion of its first robotic telesurgeries. The SSI Mantra 3 Surgical Robotic System, developed by SS Innovations, enabled two complex cardiac procedures over a 286 km distance. Dr. Sudhir Srivastava remotely operated from Gurugram to perform surgeries at Manipal Hospital in Jaipur, demonstrating the system's precision and low latency.
