"Robotic Neurosurgery now enabled with MRI Guidance"
Worcester, MA neurosurgical robotics firm developing a portable MRI-compatible surgical robot for deep brain stimulation under real-time MRI guidance.
AiM Medical Robotics is a medical device company headquartered in Worcester, Massachusetts, founded by robotics engineers and neurosurgeons with roots at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. The company is developing a portable, MRI-compatible surgical robot for use in both MRI suites and operating rooms. The system leverages intraoperative MRI updates for real-time localization and tracking, enabling sub-millimeter targeting precision for neurosurgical procedures including deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease and epilepsy, and stereotactic targeting for brain tumors.
In a 2024 cadaver trial, the robot successfully placed DBS leads using real-time MRI guidance. AiM partnered with Brigham and Women's Hospital to validate the robot in a clinical study for Parkinson's patients. In September 2025, the company closed an $8.1 million Series A round led by IQ Capital and 1540 Ventures.
AiM estimates its platform can reduce neurosurgical procedure time by up to 50%.
