Robotic Surgery

da Vinci Surgical System

The da Vinci Surgical System is a surgical robot that does tiny incisions for precise, minimally invasive procedures. It is used in operations such as general laparoscopic surgery and laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. Being a product of the latest technology, the da Vinci system allows surgeons better precision and control to better perform surgeries. The actual system consists of 3 parts:

Surgical Cart

The surgical cart is where the patient lies. It also holds the robotic arms of the da Vinci. The robotic arms handle the different EndoWrist® instruments and are designed to imitate the surgeon’s wrist and hand motion. Because of the robotic nature of the platform, the da Vinci is able to perform precise motions that usually cannot be done with regular surgeries. Complex procedures are made easier when handled by a da Vinci expert.

InSite Vision System

The 2nd cart provides a precise 3D view of the surgery for the operating surgeon. This view is made to enhance and enlarge what a doctor would see in an open surgery, allowing for greater accuracy than is possible with the naked eye. It provides high resolution, depth, precision and zooming capability.

Console

The console is the location of the main controls, which the surgeon handles manually. The robotic arm mimics the surgeon’s own corresponding movement of wrist, hand and finger.
