SurgMate x ESIR | Realism, Precision & Partnership in Thyroid Ablation Training

We’re honored to have once again partnered with ESIR (European School of Interventional Radiology) to support their Thyroid Ablation Hands-on Course in Portugal.
 

Through this collaboration, we continue to push the boundaries of immersive simulation-based education and empower medical professionals with realistic, skill-focused training.
 

Highlights from the course (March 20–21) : Four ablation device companies — Canyon Medical Inc., F Care Systems, STARmed, and Terumo Interventional Systems — delivered live demonstrations using our Thyroid Nodule Biopsy & Ablation Training Platform.


Renowned interventional experts, including Dr. Stefano Spiezia, Dr. Giovanni Mauri, and Dr. Teresa Dionísio, guided participants through real-world procedural workflows.
 

Our simulator provided:

Authentic anatomical fidelity

High-quality ultrasound imaging for accurate probe guidance

A repeatable, risk-free training environment for diverse clinical scenarios


We deeply appreciate the trust and support from the ESIR faculty, as well as the opportunity to work alongside educators and manufacturers who share our vision for realistic, accessible medical training.
 

Special thanks to Dr. Ruoyu Chang Torok for her dedication and coordination that made this hands-on workshop possible.
 

At SurgMate, we believe that simulation is not just a tool — it’s a bridge between knowledge and confident clinical execution. That’s why we are committed to developing advanced platforms that meet the evolving needs of interventional radiologists, residents, and trainees across the globe.
