Why pay more for robot in esophageal cancer surgery?

Updates in surgery
Esophagectomy is the gold standard for the treatment of resectable esophageal cancer. Traditionally, it is performed through a laparotomy and a thoracotomy, and is associated with high rates of postoperative complications and mortality. The advent of...

Haptic virtual surgery simulation system under field programmable analogue array-based hybrid control.

Scientific reports
In this paper, a bilateral haptic virtual surgery simulation system under a hybrid controller was studied. An analogue controller realized by a field programmable analogue array (FPAA) was paralleled in the operator robot side, which reduced the impa...

A Historical Perspective of the Evolution of Laparoscopic Surgeries in Urology.

Journal of endourology
Recent decades have seen the rapid progression of minimally invasive surgery in urology with continuing developments in robotic technology paving ways into a new era. In addition to these technological innovations, interests from urologists in develo...

[Artificial intelligence and hyperspectral imaging for image-guided assistance in minimally invasive surgery].

Chirurgie (Heidelberg, Germany)
BACKGROUND: Intraoperative imaging assists surgeons during minimally invasive procedures. Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is a noninvasive and noncontact optical technique with great diagnostic potential in medicine. The combination with artificial intel...

Comparison of robot-assisted versus fluoroscopy-assisted minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion for degenerative lumbar spinal diseases: 2-year follow-up.

Journal of robotic surgery
This study was performed to prospectively compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes between robot-assisted minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (RA MIS-TLIF) and fluoroscopy-assisted minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar ...

Automated Surgical-Phase Recognition for Robot-Assisted Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy Using Artificial Intelligence.

Annals of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: Although a number of robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) procedures have been performed due to three-dimensional field of view, image stabilization, and flexible joint function, both the surgeons and surgical teams req...

Trends and factors affecting approach choice to pulmonary resection.

Journal of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: The development of an advanced robotic platform in 2014 led to increased adoption of minimally invasive (MI) approaches in thoracic surgery. Due to dataset reporting lag, a comprehensive assessment of trends in thoracic approaches has not...

Robotics in Vitreo-Retinal Surgery.

Seminars in ophthalmology
PURPOSE: Modern vitreo-retinal surgery has scaled new frontiers with the advent of better instrumentation. However, physiological tremors, intraocular dexterity and difficulty in visualization hamper minimally invasive retinal surgery. Robotics has t...

Evaluation of user-interfaces for controlling movements of virtual minimally invasive surgical instruments.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Recent tele-mentoring technologies for minimally invasive surgery (MIS) augments the operative field with movements of virtual surgical instruments as visual cues. The objective of this work is to assess different user-interfaces that eff...

Preoperative positioning planning for a robot-assisted minimally invasive surgical system based on accuracy and safety.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive robot-assisted techniques are being used increasingly in surgical procedures, and the preoperative preparation for this kind of operation is more complicated than traditional operations.
