"All-powerful robotic arm!"

"It turns out that specialized surgeries in different fields are performed by these different robotic arms."

On the densely packed drawings, there are five independent robotic arms on the huge base of the surgical robot.

Each robotic arm has a distal rotation center structure to ensure that surgical instruments move around a fixed skin entry point during movement.

Among the 5 robotic arms, 4 are dedicated robotic arms for orthopedics, laparoscopy, neurosurgery, and vascular interventional surgery, and 1 is an auxiliary robotic arm.

Each robotic arm is very flexible and has multiple retractable functional arms, just like a Swiss Army Knife.

The biggest feature of the single-hole endoscopic surgical arm is that after a robotic arm enters the body through a single hole, it automatically expands into three continuous operating arms and a 3D high-definition camera, which can achieve visibility in a narrow surgical space.

control.

Orthopedic robotic arms are relatively small and can be positioned according to the patient's anatomy and assist doctors in completing accurate bone cutting operations through force feedback.

For complex spinal surgeries, the functional arm can be installed directly on the patient's spine to achieve a rigid connection, accurately perform navigation operations, and guide the doctor to complete the placement of pedicle screws.

The neurosurgery arm also has three functional arms after unfolding. The two arms can perform various intracranial surgical operations, assist doctors in accurately delivering puncture needles, electrodes and other instruments to predetermined target points, and flexibly complete biopsies, foreign body removal, and cyst aspiration.

Wait for operations.

The third functional arm is equipped with a surgical microscope to support microsurgical operations.

The vascular interventional surgery arm is also composed of two functional arms. A multi-joint functional arm is loaded with a disposable manipulator box, which can pull and control the catheter system, control catheter bending and guidewire movement, and can also load stents and balloons.

and other related equipment.

A magnetic navigation system is installed on the other functional arm, which can use an external magnetic field to drive the guidewire movement, thus avoiding radiation problems caused by X-rays.

In view of the complex cardiac anatomical environment, the magnetic navigation system is integrated with the 3D imaging system to locate the guidewire tip and transmit its position, direction data, target point, and anatomical geometry information to the main control system, thereby eliminating the need for X-ray imaging and

Can monitor the catheter position in real time.

As for the auxiliary robotic arm, it is specially designed for microvascular suturing surgery. It has a force detection function and can complete surgical operations such as cutting, clamping, suturing and knotting.

A force sensor is installed at its end, which can detect the force information between it and the surgical environment, and feed the force information back to other surgical arms, allowing the surgeon to more intuitively feel the three-dimensional force information of the surgical environment and improve the safety of the operation.

It can also deliver other surgical tools to complete some auxiliary functions.

Each robotic arm adopts an articulated structure and has a three-dimensional force sensing function. At the same time, without exception, it has an extremely flexible simulated wrist that can move freely in 8 directions and rotate 360 ​​degrees, completing operations that cannot be achieved by human hands.

The surgical positioning accuracy has also reached sub-millimeter level.

It also has a motion scaling function, which not only ensures surgical accuracy, but also minimizes natural tremors or unintentional movements of the doctor's hands.

In short, advanced sensing technology, 3D medical imaging technology, new materials and intelligent algorithms allow the end of the surgical robot to be designed to be more flexible than the human hand, and can scale the operator's movement to bring the operator closer to the tip of the surgical instrument.

Multiple contacts to achieve various surgical operations.

Finally, all robotic arms can be flexibly installed and removed according to surgical needs.

Only one surgical robotic arm and auxiliary function arm can be installed to complete a single operation, or two surgical robotic arms can be installed to complete multiple operations at the same time.

You can also hold the tools and perform surgeries and treatments according to the needs of the clinician.

For example, it is used in bone cutting when installing joint prostheses, fine operations in microsurgery, endoscopic operations in minimally invasive surgery, mobile linear accelerators in radiotherapy, etc.

Seeing all this, Wei Kang was filled with excitement and excitement, as if the door of a golden treasure house was slowly opening in front of his eyes, waiting for him to enter.

"That's great! With such a surgical robot, there will be no more difficult surgeries in the world."

"Whether it is traditional open surgery or laparoscopic surgery, the advantages of surgical robots are obvious in comparison."

"Like any robot, its biggest advantage is that it never gets tired no matter how long it works, while maintaining a high degree of accuracy."

"Its accuracy on the hundredth use is the same as on the first use, without any deviation."

"The limitations of human abilities have long been a bottleneck in clinical surgery."

"In particular, the inevitable trembling of human hands and the fatigue of doctors make it difficult to guarantee the accuracy of the operation."

"Not to mention the narrow surgical field of view and limited operating space of minimally invasive surgery, which undoubtedly makes the operation more difficult."

"But these problems are almost non-existent with surgical robots."

"The training of a qualified doctor takes a long time and requires repeated failures, which can be costly."

"Surgical robots can greatly shorten the maturation time of a qualified doctor and greatly reduce the difficulty of learning, thus providing balanced and stable medical quality."

"Robots can quickly upgrade junior doctors to a clinical level similar to that of senior doctors, solving the problem of over-concentration, uneven distribution of high-quality medical data, and long-term supply exceeding demand."

"My dream has taken solid steps towards realizing it."
