Endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery is a promising alternative to transcranial approaches. However, standard instruments lack articulation, and thus, could benefit from robotic technologies. The aim of this study was to develop an ergonomic handl...
BACKGROUND: We evaluated the accuracy, safety, and feasibility of a computed tomography (CT)-guided robotic assistance system for percutaneous needle placement in the kidney.
Robot-assisted donor nephrectomy (RDN) is increasingly used due to its advantages such as its precision and reduced learning curve when compared to laparoscopic techniques. Concerns remain among surgeons regarding possible longer warm ischemia time. ...

The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap is the workhorse in microvascular breast reconstruction. Rectus muscle sacrifice or denervation and inappropriate rectus sheath closure are the main causes of abdominal wall morbidity. Robotic vesse...
BACKGROUND: Controlling the trajectory of a neuroprosthesis to reach distant targets is a commonly used brain-machine interface (BMI) task in primates and has not been available for rodents yet.
When learning to play a musical instrument, it is important to improve the quality of self-practice. Many systems have been developed to assist practice. Some practice assistance systems use special sensors (pressure, flow, and motion sensors) to acq...

OBJECTIVE: Robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RAMIS) became a common practice in modern medicine and is widely studied. Surgical procedures require prolonged and complex movements; therefore, classifying surgical gestures could be helpful t...
BACKGROUND: Since the conception of robotic surgery, remote telesurgery has been a dream upon which incredible technological advances haven been built. Despite the considerable enthusiasm for, there have been few published studies of remote telesurge...
