 Peter Menzel / ASA / ASA, Ger.rs.124.xs Robotic surgical implements used by the da Vinci robot surgeon during minimally invasive surgery (MIS). Da Vinci is a remotely controlled robot, which gives surgeons precise control over surgical tools through an incision just one centimeter wide. The surgeon, who views the surgical site through the robotÕs endoscope attachment, controls the robotÕs arms. Such remote control gives more precise manipulation of tools than in manual surgery. Intuitive Surgical Incorporated designed Da Vinci in California, USA. |
 Peter Menzel / ASA / ASA, Ger.rs.151.xs Surgeon Anno Diegeler completes a cardiac surgery using traditional methods, after the decision is made to switch from the use of a minimally invasive robotic technique at the Herzzentrum Heart Center, Leipzig, Germany. Visiting doctors watch surgeon Volkmar Falk perform a coronary artery bypass graft on a patient lying in the adjoining room, using a tele-manipulated surgical system (called a robotic system by some) designed by Intuitive Surgical Corporation of Mountainview, California, at the Herzzentrum, Leipzig, Germany. The assistant surgeon has incised small holes into the patients chest wall through which the instruments-attached to sterile plastic covered manipulating arms-will pass and be tele-manipulated by the surgeon in the next room. The room in which the surgeon is working is a less sterile work environment than that of the operating room where the patient lies. It is much like an office; phones are ringing, there is heavy foot traffic and personal conversation-at times at crescendo level. Despite the distractions, the surgeon leans in toward the video-enabled console, which gives three-dimensional views and performs the cardiac surgery using finger controls and foot pedals that tele-manipulate tiny instruments, a light and a camera). |
 Peter Menzel / ASA / ASA, Usa.rs.424.120.xs Burying his face in a 3-D viewing system, Volkmar Falk of the Leipzig Herzzentrum-Germanys most important cardiac center-explores the chest cavity of a cadaver with the da Vinciª robotic surgical system. Thomas Krummel (standing), chief of surgery at Stanford Universitys teaching hospital, observes the procedure on a monitor displaying images from a pair of tiny cameras in one of the three ports Falk has cut into the cadaver. The other two ports are for the robotic surgical tools. Falk sees an enhanced version of the same image: software merges optical data from the two cameras into a full stereoscopic picture of the operating site. Because Falk is working with a cadaver, the tools are not swathed in protective cloth, as is the case with his live patients in Europe. Robo sapiens page 176 |
