telerobotic surgery

Telerobotic surgery involves a surgeon controlling robotic instruments remotely, often via a computer console, to perform precise surgical procedures. The robotic system translates the surgeon’s hand movements into small, accurate actions of tiny robotic arms inside the patient’s body. This technology allows for minimally invasive operations with enhanced precision, flexibility, and control, often resulting in less pain and faster recovery for patients. Telerobotic surgery can be performed locally or remotely, enabling expert surgeons to operate on patients from distant locations, improving access to specialized care while maintaining high standards of safety and effectiveness.
