WCET 2025

WCET 2025 in Phoenix marked Mendaera's debut at this conference — and a milestone moment, with the world's first Focalist™ procedures presented from the podium during a plenary session and a semi-live surgery session. These presentations brought early clinical experience with handheld robotics and ultrasound for precise kidney access in PCNL to the broader WCET community, sparking meaningful conversation about what Focalist means for urologic access.

The meeting also offered a full slate of Focalist engagement: hands-on time at our booth, participation in simulation (SIM) courses, and a Focalist evening launch party that brought the community together. Urologists and endourologists exploring how handheld robotics with ultrasound can deliver precision and confidence for PCNL and other needle-based procedures had ample opportunity to test drive the system and discuss how it fits their workflows.

WCET was an important moment for Mendaera — our technology moving from first-in-the-world procedures to broader clinical conversation, with strong engagement from the urology community throughout the meeting.

About WCET

The World Conference on Endourology and Uro-Technology (WCET) is a premier global forum for surgeons advancing minimally invasive approaches to kidney stone treatment and urologic procedures. The 2025 meeting was held in Phoenix, Arizona, drawing endourologists and urologic surgeons from around the world to share research, live and semi-live surgical demonstrations, and hands-on training in the latest techniques and technologies.
