Development status of telesurgery robotic system

Abstract

As an emerging field, telesurgery robotic system is changing the traditional medical mode and can delivery remote surgical treatment anywhere in the world. Advances in telesurgery robotic technology achieve the remote control beyond the current limitation of distance and special medical environment. This review introduces the development history, the current status and the potential in future of the telesurgery robotic system. In addition, it presents the construction of control platform and the application, especially in trauma treatment, as well as the challenge in clinic.
