Autonomous Surgical Robot: Experimental surgical robot performs gallbladder procedure autonomously, ETHealthworld

Bengaluru: An experimental AI-guided robot can autonomously perform a delicate, complicated phase of a common gallbladder operation, marking a major step toward automated medical procedures, researchers said on Wednesday. Existing surgical robots are remotely controlled by surgeons. The new system uses artificial intelligence to make independent decisions and adapts to unexpected complications during operations, said … Read more
