Ion robot: A new tool to detect lung cancer

Desert Regional Medical Center is the first hospital in the Coachella Valley to offer a new robotic system, called Ion, that allows physicians to reach more deeply into the lungs and potentially detect cancer at an earlier stage. Ion is a robotic-assisted tool for minimally invasive biopsy inside the lung. Ion enables specially trained pulmonologists at Desert Regional Medical Center the ability to obtain tissue samples from deep within the lung, addressing a challenging aspect of lung biopsy. It may also help patients avoid subsequent biopsies by helping enable a diagnosis through the samples obtained.
