He has supported hospitals that have newly purchased Versisus from CMR in implementing the system. Prof. Lutz Mirow was presented technical innovations in live and online sessions for medical assessment. This consultancy work was compensated by CMR Surgical. A formal contract exists between Klinikum Chemnitz gGmbH and CMR Surgical. This agreement encompasses the acquisition, maintenance, and upkeep of the Versius system. Furthermore, CMR Surgical has compensated Klinikum Chemnitz gGmbH for hosting doctors from Germany and Europe to observe the Versius system in clinical operation during its first year after installation. Although this institutional relationship does not directly influence the research funding, it is disclosed for the sake of transparency.
