PURPOSE: To compare the accuracy of pedicle screw placement in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) between robotics and navigation and clarify the factors that cause screw deviation when robotics is used.
In recent years, robotic minimally invasive surgery has transformed many types of surgical procedures and improved their outcomes. Implementing effective haptic feedback into a teleoperated robotic surgical system presents a significant challenge due...

BACKGROUND: Robotic guidance has become widespread in spine surgery. Although the intent is improved screw placement, further system-specific data are required to substantiate this intention for pedicle screws in spinal stabilization constructs.
PURPOSE: Both robots and navigation are effective strategies for optimizing screw placement, as compared to freehand placement. However, few studies have compared the accuracy and efficiency of these two techniques. Thus, the purpose of this study is...
This study aimed to investigate the accuracy and safety of mandibular osteotomy and distraction device positioning in distraction osteogenesis assisted by an electromagnetic navigation surgical robot. Twelve New Zealand white rabbits were randomly di...
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this review was to investigate the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in maxillofacial computer-assisted surgical planning (CASP) workflows with the discussion of limitations and possible future directions.
