Surgical details and renal function change after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether differences in surgical details during robot-assisted partial nephrectomy impact postoperative renal function.

A novel microwave tool for robotic liver resection in minimally invasive surgery.

Minimally invasive therapy & allied technologies : MITAT : official journal of the Society for Minimally Invasive Therapy
INTRODUCTION: During the last two decades, many surgical procedures have evolved from open surgery to minimally invasive surgery (MIS). This limited invasiveness has motivated the development of robotic assistance platforms to obtain better surgical ...

Initial clinical experience of single-incision robotic colorectal surgery with da Vinci SP platform.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: The da Vinci Surgical System (Intuitive Surgical, Sunnyvale, CA) was introduced to overcome the limitations of single-incision laparoscopic surgery, which is challenging due to its restrictions regarding triangulation and retraction. The ...

Evaluation of haptic devices and end-users: Novel performance metrics in tele-robotic microsurgery.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Here, we present performance evaluation methodology that distinguishes the performance of a haptic device from end-user skill level in a tele-robotic system.

Continuum Robotic Caterpillar with Wirelessly Powered Shape Memory Alloy Actuators.

Soft robotics
Wireless power transfer (WPT) has the significant potential for soft-bodied continuum robots to extend the operational time limitlessly and reduce weight. However, rigid power receiver coils, widely used in WPT, hinder the continuum deformation of th...
