What therapeutic areas can surgical robots be used for?
Surgical robots were once known as technological innovations at the tip of the knife. With the help of consoles, imaging systems and robotic arms, it assists doctors in minimally invasive surgery in the form of precise control to complete complex surgeries. Compared with open surgery and traditional minimally invasive surgery, it has a number of advantages: first, the surgical robot effectively reduces the area of surgical wound trauma, making the patient’s post-operative recovery faster and reducing the incidence of post-operative complications; second, the surgical robot’s flexible robotic arm improves surgical precision and ensures the stability of surgical results; finally, the surgical robot reduces the surgeon’s physical exertion, shortens the surgeon’s learning curve, and also reduces the patient’s radiation exposure. Surgical robots can be categorized into orthopedic surgical robots, neurosurgical surgical robots, vascular intervention robots and endoscopic surgical robots.
