surgeons use many different instruments with the robotic surgical system, these
include:
The robotic-assisted surgical systems allow the surgeon to use computer
technology to control and maneuver these surgical instruments during minimally
invasive surgical procedures.
The computer-assisted surgical systems commonly include these three
components: A console, the bedside cart, and a separate cart that contains supporting
hardware and software. The first of these is the regulation center of the system and
allows the surgeon to view his area of surgery and physically control his instruments.
The second of these is the portion of the robot that holds the cameras and the
instruments that the surgeon is controlling. And the third contains equipment such as
the electrical surgical unit (ESU), a light source for the endoscope, and
suction/irrigation pumps. As made evident, computers have become an essential
piece in all types of surgical procedures and have increased the quality as well.
