In April 2005, endoVia Medical was acquied by CA based Hansen Medical. Originally doing business as Brock Rogers Surgical Inc., endoVia Medical was re-named in 2002. endoVia Medical Inc was a medical device company producing the Laprotek Instrument System - a robotic tool used for laparoscopic surgery. The company's devices for minimally invasive surgery (MIS) include a robotic instrument system designed for both community hospitals and teaching institutions. The company's solution affects existing laparoscopic procedures and allows surgeons to convert complex abdominal and gynecology surgeries from open to MIS procedures.
