Robotic Surgery - Science topic

Potential problems in robotic surgery in laparoscopy What is the role of the biomedical engineer in solving them?

I would like to perform a literature review at this time on augmented learning and learning augmented algorithms to enhance performance-guided surgery

Robotic surgery is the future - any opinion or thoughts? Would like to hear everyone’s thoughts

In the case of a fit patient (ECOG 0/1), having a distal ureteric tumor, with a proven TCC high grade pT1- of the bladder, what would be the most apt management strategy?

Would the choice of management vary, depending on-

A) Age of the patient

B) Status of the Opposite kidney

C) Role of reimplantation of the ureter in a diseased bladder.

D) Need for surveillance of the upper tract.

In which branches, industry, the development of robotics, work automation and the implementation of artificial intelligence into production processes, logistics, etc. is currently the most dynamic?

Please reply

I invite you to the discussion

With advanced technology there is shift towards conservative management. Advent of transoral robotic surgery there are centres suggesting a selective nodal dissection leg me II to V. Is dissective level 1 b necessary or it can be avoided completely with similar oncological safety.?

i have treated the both and didn't really noticed any big difference. its just the size of the incision which will make the pt feel more pain. unfortunately, i couldn't find any articles regarding pt management for such case and i do believe sooner or later this case should undergo for research.

I read about urethral stricture because there is often relapse after surgery, the stricture comes back.

We know that laparoscopic systems with haptic feedback have more advantage than something else. so, Do they have mass production? In which countries?

Urology,  Robotic Surgery,  Prostate cancer. Prostatectomy 

I would like to obtain a realistic model for the human hand while it is in interaction with a surgery tool and soft or hard tissues. I would like to know more about the methods that I can use for getting the appropriate DOF for hand and the way to get the data to do so.

Let’s imagine that there is only one available option regarding hands-on training in laparoscopic and/or robotic surgery for residents, besides assisting at surgical operations. The choices are as follows:

It would be interesting to explore the perspective of professionals from different scientific fields (i.e. residents, board certified surgeons, professors, computer engineers, animal specialists or even financial analysts etc).

Someone might be confused about the difference between the robot assisted surgery and the navigation system, which is helping a surgeon to direct the target. To answer this question, several experts' points of view is required.

Robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery—most rapidly in urology but also in gynaecology, cardiothoracics, head and neck, and general surgery has fascinated surgeons. But has this innovation in surgery translated to benefits for patients? The Da Vinci surgical system is the only robot approved by the FDA for soft tissue surgery. The device provides a magnified 3D view of the operative field from a console, from which the surgeon controls the robot which holds a camera and tremor-free instruments with a greater range of movement than laparoscopic instruments.The benefits to the surgeon are fantastic. There is improved vision and precision. Robotic surgery is more expensive than open surgery due to the cost of the robot (an initial outlay of some £1•5 million) and disposable equipment but this may be offset by other savings, such as reduced length of stay or reduction in complications. Start-up costs are high. Which procedure in your opinion has better outcomes: robotic or open or laparoscopic surgery?

The gastrectomy with D2 limphadenectomy is the gold standard for treatment of advanced gastric cancer. A minimally invasive treatment is possible, but a long learning curve is necessary.....

LESS is still technically difficult and in urology we have already our own limitations. Therefore, do you think that LESS will survive?

Do you think that the future of surgery will be ruled by robotic devices, or will it be limited due to the high costs of this technology?
