Untethered soft miniature robots capable of accessing hard-to-reach regions can enable new, disruptive, and minimally invasive medical procedures. However, once the control input is removed, these robots easily move from their target location because...
In emergency scenarios where the on-site information is completely lacking or the original environmental state has been completely changed, autonomous and mobile swarm robotics are used to quickly build a rescue support system to ensure the safety of...
INTRODUCTION: The transition from laparoscopic to robot-assisted procedures leads to potential increase in operative times and health care costs. Cumulative sum (CUSUM) analysis can objectively study the learning curve to detect significant changes i...

PURPOSE: To evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of a robotic system to integrate and map computed tomography (CT) and robotic coordinates, followed by automatic trajectory execution by a robotic arm. The system was hypothesized to achieve a targeti...
INTRODUCTION: Implementation of robot-assisted procedures is growing. Utilization within the country's largest healthcare network, the Veterans Health Administration, is unclear.
This article presents the development of a model of a spherical robot that rolls to move and has a single point of support with the surface. The model was developed in the CoppeliaSim simulator, which is a versatile tool for implementing this kind of...

BACKGROUND: Robotic-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD) is surging worldwide. Aim of the study was to perform a multicentric cost-analysis of RARC by comparing the gross cost of the intervention across hosp...
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...
