Robotic Spine Surgery
Features
- Supervisory-controlled systems whereby the machine is programmed with predetermined actions that are carried out with robotic autonomy and close surgeon supervision.
- Tele-surgical systems that afford the surgeon complete control of the motions of the machine from a remote command station.
- Shared-control models, a form of co-autonomy allowing both the surgeon and robot to simultaneously control motions.
- It combines surgeon’s understanding of anatomy with x-ray imaging to treat spine conditions using small incisions.
- Designed to improve accuracy and optimize patient care by using robotics and navigation.
