As one of Latin America's most vibrant economies, Brazil also leads the region in advancing minimally invasive surgery (MIS). Here, a culture of open collaboration and cutting-edge innovation is continuously elevating surgical quality and patient outcomes nationwide.
As a committed partner in this progress, Mindray is working with Brazil's leading surgical experts to deliver comprehensive MIS solutions that are transforming patient care.

Mindray Innovation in General Surgery
In complex hepatobiliary, pancreatic, and oncological surgeries, surgeons must contend with multiple critical factors at once, including surgical margin delineation, organ structures, ductal distribution, and the patient's real-time vital signs.
"The thing I fear most during surgery is 'getting lost,' " said Christian Garcia, Director of Surgery at the São José Municipal Hospital in Brazil.
Mindray's innovative Ultrasound-Endoscope Collaboration is proving to be a powerful solution to this challenge.
With ultrasound and endoscopic images displayed on a single screen, surgeons can simultaneously view not only organ surfaces but also internal lesions and structural details within the tissue. By eliminating the need to switch between displays for cross-referencing, it significantly improves surgical precision and efficiency.

With 3D visualization and ultrasound images displayed on one screen, it's like performing surgery with GPS, guiding us precisely through the patient's abdominal cavity.

Laparoscopic ultrasound acts as the "hands" and "eyes" of the surgeon reaching into the patient's body, while the integrated display of ultrasound and endoscopic images gives them "X-ray vision" to see what lies beneath. This means no more blind exploration, only more precise operations and enhanced surgical safety.
For "Her" Health
In the field of minimally invasive gynecology, Mindray's advanced technology is making an equally powerful impact on women's health. The Santa Casa de São Paulo School of Medical Sciences is one of the most prestigious and oldest medical schools in Brazil and Latin America. Together with the Santa Casa Medical Complex, it serves as a critical medical referral center and a leading training facility for specialists and surgeons in Brazil.
Drs. Helizabet and Paulo have worked here for over 25 years. As leading experts in minimally invasive gynecological surgery, they utilize advanced 4K fluorescence imaging and Ultrasound-Endoscope Collaboration to safeguard the health of women throughout Brazil.
"What surgeons can see defines how safely and precisely they can operate. Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) surgery demands meticulous nerve-sparing techniques. Only with a 4K laparoscopic lens can I see the nerves clearly and operate with precision, minimizing risk to the patient, " said Dr. Paulo.
For Dr. Helizabet, 4K fluorescence technology delivers enhanced surgical visibility. "Fluorescence technology gives us a better surgical view. In obstetric and gynecological surgeries, we no longer waste time looking for the ureter—it's always clearly visible. I can see exactly what I'm doing, which makes the surgery much safer. "

Whether we can perform complex surgery with precision and safety depends heavily on image quality. Fluorescence technology now gives us a significantly improved surgical view, reducing complication rates and operation time.

To me, medicine is much more than academic research or surgery. It's about having the chance to truly help someone. That's why I became a doctor, and that's what makes it all worthwhile.
From "real-time navigation" beyond sensory limitations to precise MIS solutions for women's health, Mindray has maintained a strong presence in Brazil through close collaboration with top local healthcare providers.
Moving forward, Mindray remains committed to expanding access to advanced technologies—bringing its “Beyond What Is Seen” approach into practice, empowering physicians, caring for every patient, and making high-quality healthcare more accessible to all.
