Robotic Telesurgery

Welcome to Robotic Telesurgery.  Remote surgery (also known as telesurgery) is the ability for a doctor to perform surgery on a patient even though they are not physically in the same location. It is a form of telepresence. Remote surgery combines elements of robotics, cutting edge communication technology such as high-speed data connections and elements of management information systems. While the field of robotic surgery is fairly well established, most of these robots are controlled by surgeons at the

location of the surgery. Remote surgery is essentially advanced telecommuting  for surgeons, where the physical distance between the surgeon and the patient is immaterial. It promises to allow the expertise of specialized surgeons to be available to patients worldwide, without the need for patients to travel beyond their local hospital.

Simulated Telerobotic Brain Surgery

Haptic enabled simulated telesurgical operation using custom haptic interface and CRS robot with ATI mini40 forcesensor. Matlab Simulink Real-Time Workshop (RTW) and Quanser Wincon was used to implement the control software.
