Robotic Platforms for Minimally Invasive Surgery, 1st Edition, provides a concise reference detailing primary robotic systems used in minimally invasive surgical practice. The book offers practical guidance for surgeons, researchers, and healthcare professionals who are beginning to engage with robot-assisted procedures. It outlines core operational principles and technological frameworks across contemporary surgical settings.
The text examines established robotic platforms operating across laparoscopic, endoscopic, and microsurgical approaches. Specific surgical systems evaluated include the da Vinci SP, Versius from CMR, and the Hugo RAS platform. These evaluations examine system design features alongside practical clinical utility in operating environments.
Beyond hardware design, the volume outlines competency-based frameworks and technological integration in robotic surgery education. This focus provides targeted reference support for early-career professionals entering the field of robotic surgery.
