Published justification

The Neuromate comes with the technical specifications and requirements needed to meet the needs of our patients. It comes with proven clinical accuracy which was key for our paediatric setting also. The Neuromate comes with a robotic head holder eliminating the need for us to replace our current cranial frames. The maturity and completeness of this robot also reduces adoption risk with an established national service infrastructure, making this system the only robotic platform suitable for clinical needs at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals.
