Abstract: | Neurosurgery has traditionally been at the forefront of advancing technologies, adapting new techniques and devices successfully
in an effort to increase the safety and efficacy of brain and spine surgery. Among these adaptations are surgical robotics.
This paper reviews some of the more promising systems in neurosurgical robotics, including brain and spine applications in
use and in development. The purpose of the discussion is twofold—to discuss the most promising models for neurosurgical applications,
and to discuss some of the pitfalls of robotic neurosurgery given the unique anatomy of the brain and spine. |
