Description : | There is currently only one surgical robotic system available in the world - the da vinci robotic system. Only a handful of these systems are available in India. The system costs around 12 crores. It is exorbitantly expensive for training new Doctors as the consumables per surgical procedure is around Rs.30,000/-. With the intent of training budding robotic surgeons at low cost without compromising the features of robotic surgery like tremor compensation and motion scaling, we have developed a telesurgical robotic training system. Phantom and biological tissue can be used instead of a 3D computer model to train Doctors. |
