Robotic surgery is when your surgeon uses a robotic device to do your procedure. The device has a robotic arm that can hold small surgical instruments. Your surgeon moves the robotic arm using controllers and a viewing screen.

2024年4月13日 · Robotic systems can help surgeons increase precision, flexibility and control for many procedures. Learn about the advantages and availability of robot-assisted surgery.

Robotic surgery, also known as robot-assisted surgery, refers to a minimally invasive surgical technique where specialized robotic systems are employed to assist surgeons in performing procedures with unparalleled precision and control.

2024年12月31日 · Robotic surgery (also called robotic-assisted surgery) is perhaps the most cutting-edge medical technology of modern times. The most widely used system today involves a camera and the use of very small surgical tools attached to robotic arms.

Robotically assisted surgery was developed to try to overcome the limitations of pre-existing minimally-invasive surgical procedures and to enhance the capabilities of surgeons performing open surgery.

2024年3月10日 · That’s where robotic surgery comes in. Robotic or robot-assisted surgery lets doctors carry out tricky medical procedures with more accuracy and control. What is robotic surgery?...

2023年5月10日 · Robotic surgery enables some procedures to be converted from open to laparoscopic, which often means less discomfort, less bleeding, less time in the hospital, and faster recovery periods for patients.

2025年1月7日 · Robotic surgery, in medicine, the use of machines guided by doctors to perform surgical procedures. The word robot was first used in the play R.U.R.: Rossum’s Universal Robots, written by Czech novelist and playwright Karel Čapek and performed in 1921.

2024年11月12日 · Robotic surgery is a form of minimally invasive surgery that is becoming widely used in hospitals across the United States. The technique, which uses robotic arms and a high-definition, 3D camera, enhances the surgeon’s precision and control.

Luckily, robotic surgery is helping surgeons perform complex minimally invasive procedures with more precision, often leading to less pain post-surgery and quicker recovery times. Northwestern Medicine Endocrine Surgeon Samer Rajjoub, MD, recently celebrated his 500th robotic surgery.
