Robotic surgical systems are comprehensive systems integrating multiple modern high-tech methods. They have a wide range of applications and are widely used in clinical surgery. Surgeons can operate the machines remotely from the operating table to perform surgery, which is completely different from the traditional surgical concept. It is undoubtedly a revolutionary surgical tool in the field of minimally invasive surgery worldwide.
Surgical robots can be mainly divided into orthopedic surgical robots, neurosurgical surgical robots, vascular interventional therapy robots, and endoscopic surgical robots. Below, we analyze the key technologies of each type of surgical robot.
Orthopedic surgical robots
It is mainly used for high-precision positioning to assist doctors in performing prosthetic limb implantation and repair surgery for the spine, joints, etc.
Its key technologies are: mechanical system, imaging system and computer system.
Neurosurgical robots
It is mainly used for precise positioning and navigation of the nervous system, and to assist doctors in holding and fixing surgical instruments.
Its key technologies mainly include: surgical planning software, navigation and positioning system, robot-assisted instrument positioning, and operating system.
Vascular interventional therapy robot
It features a precise catheter advancement system that can stably complete surgical procedures, and a navigation system that helps doctors understand the interaction between the catheter and the blood vessel wall.
Its key technologies include: image navigation system, mechanical device and control system, force feedback system, etc.
endoscopic surgical robot
Its function is to assist doctors in accurately performing minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery through the main control console, robotic arm system and high-definition camera system.
Its key technologies include: three-dimensional high-definition surgical vision system, simulated robotic arm, motion control technology, etc.
Surgical robots are considered the crown jewel of the robotics industry. The American "da Vinci Surgical System" holds a leading position in the global surgical robot industry.
A number of excellent surgical robot companies have emerged in my country, among which Remebot, Tinavi, Miaoshou Robotics, and Kingsoft are relatively leading.
