Advances in Surgical Robotics

By: Barua, Ranjit

Surgical robotics is reshaping medical science and engineering by improving the precision and effectiveness of complex procedures. Surgical Robotics: Innovations, Applications, and Future Directions explores the evolution, core technologies, and future scope of these systems.Developed in the late 20th century, robotic systems have advanced significantly, providing engineers with opportunities to design machines that reduce surgical trauma and speed recovery. Key engineering components like actuators, sensors, and real-time control systems enhance surgical precision. AI integration further refines decision-making, introducing new layers of accountability and accuracy.Robotics in surgery, especially minimally invasive procedures like those using the Da Vinci System, have optimized results in general surgery, urology, etc. Emerging fields such as bioprinting and nanorobotics promise to expand the capabilities of surgical robotics. However, engineering challenges related to cost, regulatory approval, and ethical considerations must be addressed to ensure the responsible integration of these technologies into healthcare.
