Robotics are changing brain surgery. How so? Let a team of experts count the ways.
Publishing a paper on the topic June 30 in Operative Neurosurgery, neurosurgeons Tyler Ball, MD, of the University of Louisville, Chengyuan Wu, MD, of Thomas Jefferson University and colleagues note that their overview is based not on a comprehensive survey but on their professional observations from the field.
The authors concentrate on robotic technologies that either augment a surgeon’s movements or simplify a multistep process.
Left out are machines that “execute a simple translational or rotational movement under direct surgeon control.”
Ten applications meet their discussion criteria. They are, as follows:
CorPath GRX Robotic System | Translational and rotational endovascular catheter movements. Role: Telesurgery. Can...
