HINGHAM, Mass., Dec. 23, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Microbot Medical Inc. (Nasdaq: MBOT), announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued a Notice of Allowance for a third patent application covering the Company’s LIBERTY® Robotic System. The Company has secured all three U.S. patents during 2021. Globally, the Company now has 47 patents issued/allowed and 26 pending patent applications and is continuously submitting applications to protect its Intellectual Property.

“2021 has been an extremely successful year for our LIBERTY Robotic System – key patents and development progress leading to the recently announced design freeze – so we remain bullish on our future prospects and maintaining the positive momentum,” commented Harel Gadot, CEO, President and Chairman. “The IP and R&D teams are accomplishing meaningful milestones, which gives us greater confidence that we will continue to perform at a high level and execute the clinical and operating objectives we have planned throughout 2022.”
