A robot trained on videos of surgeries performed a lengthy phase of a gallbladder removal without human help. The robot operated for the first time on a lifelike patient, and during the operation, ...

Researchers at Johns Hopkins University have shown that an artificial intelligence-powered robot—trained on videos of previous surgeries—could learn how to perform the procedure itself, without help ...

Huntington Hospital reports performing New York’s first single-port robotic gallbladder removal. The hospital reports completing Suffolk’s first single-port thoracic operation. Single-port surgery ...

A robot has performed realistic surgery on its own with 100% accuracy, researchers have said. In a “major leap” towards using more robots in operating theatres, a machine trained on the videos of ...

Robotic and video-assisted thoracic surgery have revolutionized lung cancer treatment, minimizing trauma and shortening recovery times. Minimally invasive techniques enable complex procedures, ...

Robotic-assisted surgery allows surgeons to operate with greater precision using a high-definition, 3D view. The surgeon remains in full control of the robotic instruments from a console during the ...

Minimally invasive approaches to lung cancer resection have transformed thoracic surgery. Robotic-assisted and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) offer enhanced visualisation, improved ...

A robot has performed a realistic surgery for the first time without human help. Researchers at Johns Hopkins University said Wednesday that the robot had “unflappably” conducted a lengthy phase of a ...

And, before that, Krieger's Smart Tissue Autonomous Robot, STAR, performed the first autonomous robot surgery on a live animal – a laparoscopic surgery on a pig – in 2022. But it was much more heavily ...

In the first human trial of robotic-assisted cataract surgery, 10 patients underwent the procedure with good outcomes with no complications related to the treatment, according to the Los Angeles-based ...

An automated “Grey’s Anatomy”? Robots have proven their worth in manufacturing assembly lines, but they also have a big future in other places, in particular surgery. For one thing, robots promise ...
