Robot-assisted surgery is increasingly used in surgery for cancer. Reduced overview and loss of anatomical orientation are challenges that might be solved with image-guided surgical navigation using electromagnetic tracking (EMT). However, the robot'...
To evaluate the usefulness of robot-assisted total laparoscopic hysterectomy with four equally-spaced ports (RA-TLH/4e) without an assistant port. In RA-TLH/4e, four da Vinci ports were placed horizontally at a height of 4 cm above the umbilicus with...
OBJECTIVE: To review recent technological advancement in imaging, surgical visualization, robotics technology, and the use of artificial intelligence in surgical vitreoretinal (VR) diseases.
Microrobots have emerged as powerful tools for manipulating particles, cells, and assembling biological tissue structures at the microscale. However, achieving precise and flexible operation of arbitrary-shaped microstructures in 3D space remains a c...

BACKGROUND: Early mobilization is only carried out to a limited extent in the intensive care unit. To address this issue, the robotic assistance system VEMOTION® was developed to facilitate (early) mobilization measures more easily. This paper descri...
There has been a significant increase in robot-assisted dental procedures in the past decade, particularly in the area of robot-assisted implant placement. The objective of this case report was to assess the initial use of the Yomi Robot's assistance...
OBJECTIVE: To present the patient-reported quality of life (QoL) outcomes from a prospective, randomized controlled trial comparing the use of pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) and duloxetine after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP).
Outside of the laboratory, animals behave in spaces where they can transition between open areas and coverage as they interact with others. Replicating these conditions in the laboratory can be difficult to control and record. This has led to a domin...
Handheld robots offer accessible solutions with a short learning curve to enhance operator capabilities. However, their controllable degree-of-freedoms are limited due to scarce space for actuators. Inspired by muscle movements stimulated by nerves, ...
