## Common questions

### What is Loop-X?

Loop-X is a mobile intraoperative imaging robot developed by Brainlab, part of the Brainlab Robotic Suite. It provides mobile CT imaging during surgery and received FDA clearance alongside the Cirq robotic alignment module for spine surgery.

### How much does Loop-X cost?

Loop-X's price is not publicly disclosed. DEPLOY has no verified price on record for Loop-X from Brainlab. Physical-AI systems like this are often sold through enterprise contracts or operated as a service rather than at a public list price; check the manufacturer for the latest.

### Is Loop-X actually deployed in the real world?

Yes. Loop-X is independently verified in real-world operation on the DEPLOY registry, confirmed at named deployment sites with primary sources: not a concept, render, or demo-only.

### Who makes Loop-X?

Loop-X is made by Brainlab, based in Munich, Germany, founded in 1989.

### Where is Loop-X deployed?

1 verified deployment of Loop-X is on the DEPLOY registry, including at Hospital San Juan de Dios León.

### Can you buy Loop-X?

Loop-X is in commercial deployment and is sold to operators; contact the manufacturer to buy, and see the pricing section for any recorded price.

### What are alternatives to Loop-X?

On the DEPLOY registry, comparable surgical robots to Loop-X include Edison Histotripsy System, da Vinci (and Ion), Toumai, Stryker Mako SmartRobotics.

### How does Loop-X compare to Edison Histotripsy System?

Loop-X and Edison Histotripsy System (HistoSonics · 14 deployments) are both surgical robots on the DEPLOY registry. Loop-X has 1 verified deployment on record. Compare both records for specs, safety, deployments, and verified-vs-claimed autonomy.

### What is Loop-X's maturity stage?

Loop-X is at the commercial stage on the DEPLOY maturity ladder (research, prototype, pilot, commercial, production). Commercial stage means production-grade deployments are operating at named customer sites.
