Robot-assisted surgery or robotic surgery are any types of surgical procedures that are performed using robotic systems. Robotically assisted surgery was developed to try to overcome the limitations of pre-existing minimally-invasive surgical procedures and to enhance the capabilities of surgeons performing open surgery.
The Journal of Robotic Surgery is a peer-reviewed medical journal covering robotic surgery, including surgical simulation and medical imaging techniques. It is the official journal of the Society of Robotic Surgery. [1] The journal was established in 2007 by Vipul Patel [2] and is published by Springer Science+Business Media.

Robotic surgery is a term used for correlated actions of a surgeon and a surgical robot (that has been programmed to carry out certain actions during the preoperative planning procedure). A surgical robot is a mechanical device (generally looking like a robotic arm) that is computer-controlled.
A robot surgical system generally consists of one or more arms (controlled by the surgeon), a master controller (console), and a sensory system giving feedback to the user. [1] [2] Remote surgery combines elements of robotics, telecommunications such as high-speed data connections and elements of management information systems.
A laparoscopic robotic surgery machine. Patient-side cart of the da Vinci surgical system. A medical robot is a robot used in the medical sciences. They include surgical robots. These are in most telemanipulators, which use the surgeon's activators on one side to control the "effector" on the other side. [1] [2] [3]
da Vinci patient-side component (left) and surgeon console (right) A surgeon console at the treatment centre of Addenbrooke's Hospital The da Vinci System consists of a surgeon's console that is typically in the same room as the patient, and a patient-side cart with three to four interactive robotic arms (depending on the model) controlled from the console.
