Comparison of robot-assisted and conventional laparoscopy for colorectal surgery for endometriosis: A prospective cohort study.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Our objective was to evaluate surgical outcomes of robotic compared to conventional laparoscopy for colorectal surgery for endometriosis.

Magnetically Actuated Cell-Robot System: Precise Control, Manipulation, and Multimode Conversion.

Small (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)
Border-nearing microrobots with self-propelling and navigating capabilities have promising applications in micromanipulation and bioengineering, because they can stimulate the surrounding fluid flow for object transportation. However, ensuring the bi...

A robotic magnetic resonance-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound platform for neonatal neurosurgery: Assessment of targeting accuracy and precision in a brain phantom.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is one of the most serious neurovascular complications resulting from premature birth. It can result in clotting of blood within the ventricles, which causes a buildup of cerebrospinal fluid that can lead...

Application of an adapted FMEA framework for robot-inclusivity of built environments.

Scientific reports
Mobile robots are deployed in the built environment at increasing rates. However, lack of considerations for a robot-inclusive planning has led to physical spaces that would potentially pose hazards to robots, and contribute to an overall productivit...

Accuracy and Security Analysis of a Cranio-Maxillofacial Plastic Surgery Robot Equipped With Piezosurgery in Genioplasty.

The Journal of craniofacial surgery
This study aims to verify that the craniofacial plastic surgery robot with piezosurgery is more accurate and safer than traditional operations in genioplasty. This study chose data from the Digital Plastic Surgery of Plastic Surgery Hospital in the C...

Designing a Contact Fingertip Sensor Made Using a Soft 3D Printing Technique.

Soft robotics
The development of highly compliant materials and actuators has enabled the design of soft robots that can be applied in rescue operations, in secure human-robot interactions, to manipulate fragile devices or objects, and for robot locomotion within ...

Is robotic lobectomy cheaper? A micro-cost analysis.

Journal of robotic surgery
Higher capital costs and operating room costs associated with Lobectomy via Robot Assisted Thoracic Surgery (RATS) have previously been suggested as the principal contributors to the elevated overall cost. This study uses a micro-costing approach to ...

Robot-assisted techniques in vascular and endovascular surgery.

Langenbeck's archives of surgery
For thousands of years, robots have inspired the imagination of humans, but it was only about 35 years ago that a robot was used for the first time in medicine. Since then, robot-assisted procedures have become increasingly popular in urology, genera...
