It will be important for us to also talk about the environment. Then, finally, we must talk about both the moral and ethical aspects of using robots to perform surgery. By researching and reporting these things, it is our desire for everyone to not only have a better understanding of the technology, but to consider it as an alternate source, if needed in the future. It is technology like robotic assisted surgery that will help us have the long, healthy lives we all desire. Description of the Technology (Melissa Cutrer) Description Computer assisted surgery and robotic assisted surgery are both technology developments that use robotic systems to aid surgeons in surgical procedures. The term robot was first coined by the Czech playwright, Karel Capek, in 1921 in his play Rossom s Universal Robots. The word robot is from the check word â€Å"robota† which means forced labor. (Palep, 2009). Robots are taking on more of a role outside of just imagination but in reality. Robots were once known as machines that performed repetitive tasks and now they have taken on the role of being known as highly intelligent robots and are becoming popular in culture with human like characteristics. Even though robots still areShow MoreRelatedRobot Assisted Surgery : Robotic System1933 Words   |  8 PagesIntroduction: Robot assisted surgeries are the surgical procedures that utilize a robotic system controlled by a physician or the surgeon himself via a computer. The robotic system has an attached camera to help the operator to see the organ being operated. These systems are known for their precision, accuracy, delicacy and efficient controlling options. Since their invention they have been used and are currently used in urological, neurological, endoscopic, cardiovascular and gynecological surgeries and operationRead MoreRole Of Laparoscopic, Robotic Assisted And Open Surgery Essay3228 Words   |  13 PagesRole of laparoscopic, robotic assisted and open surgery in management of stones. Introduction: Humans are suffering from the urolithiasis from time before the recorded history. Urolithiasis have been found in the Egyptian mummy dating 4800BC(1).Surgery for urolithiasis was done in ancient Greek and Roman civilizations but these surgeries were mainly focused as treatment for complications of stone diseases like pyonephrosis or fistulae. Ingalls performed first elective nephrolithotomy in 1872 inRead MoreThe Origin Of Surgical Robots1472 Words   |  6 PagesAccording to the Springer Handbook of Robotics, since the mid 1980s the growth of medical robots has significantly, and strikingly increased. Robotic surgery, also called robot assisted surgery, is using robotic surgical devices to allow a surgeon at a console to operate remote-controlled robotic arms which facilitate the performance of procedures (Barbash). These robots are classified by manipulator design, level of autonomy, targeted anatomy or technique and intended operating environment (Siciliano)Read MoreRobotic Surg ery : Surgical Surgery1746 Words   |  7 PagesRobotic Surgery Robots are used in everyday life. They are in cars, our houses, and many places we do not care to notice, as they have become a necessity for daily living. Advancements have been made, that allow for robots to be used in surgery. Robotic surgery is relatively new to the medical industry and it is often underrated. Robotic surgery offers greater efficiency, and utility than that provided through traditional surgical methods.

There was even a movie produced by National Geographic on robotics that featured the Arthrobot. Around the same time, other medical robots were developed including a robotic arm that performed eye surgery and another that acted as an operating assistant by handing surgeons instruments by responding to voice commands. In 1985, another robot called the Puma 560 was used to place
