Robot performs complex 'keyhole' intestinal surgery on pigs without human aid
. What's more, the Smart Tissue Autonomous Robot handled the tricky procedure"significantly better" than human doctors. The breakthrough marks a significant step towards automated surgery that could one day help"democratize" patient care, the researchers said.
Soft tissue surgery in general is hard for robots due to the unpredictability. To deal with that, the STAR robot was equipped with specialized suturing tools and state-of-the-art imaging systems that could deliver extremely accurate visualizations. Specifically, it had a"structural light–based three-dimensional endoscope and machine learning–based tracking algorithm" to guide the robots.
