List the advantages of robotic surgery

The advantages of robotic surgery: 

  • Instead of operating on patients through large incisions, use is made of miniature surgical instruments, that fit through quarter inch incisions. 
  • Robotic surgery gives the surgeon a 3-D view of the operating site. 
  • Every movement the surgeon makes with the master controls is replicated accurately by the robot. 
  • When necessary, the surgeon can even change the scale of the robot’s movements. 
  • Surgeons can use this technology to perform complex surgical procedures. 
  • Since the incisions made are very small, the patients too benefit.
