{{other uses|Rosa (disambiguation)}}
ROSA is a medical robotic technology, designed to minimize invasiveness of surgeries of the central nervous system. ROSA robots assist health professionals during surgical procedures.
The ROSA technology, developed by the French company Zimmer Biomet Robotics, is used in 120 hospitals across Europe, North America, Asia, Australia, and the Middle East.Medtech’s official website : {{cite web |url=http://medtech.fr/en/rosa-worldwide |title=Medtech - ROSA™ worldwide |accessdate=2014-07-30 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141103135223/http://medtech.fr/en/rosa-worldwide |archivedate=2014-11-03 }}C.
