ROBOTIC SURGERY

WHAT IS ROBOTIC SURGERY?

The term “robotic” often misleads people. Robots don’t perform surgery. Your surgeon performs surgery with a robotic surgical system by using instruments that he or she guides via a console. The robotic surgical system gives your surgeon an advanced set of instruments to use in performing robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery. The robotic surgical system translates your surgeon’s hand movements at the console in real-time, bending and rotating the instruments while performing the procedure. The tiny wristed instruments move like a human hand but with a greater range of motion. The robotic surgical system also delivers highly magnified, 3D high-definition views of the surgical area. The instrument size makes it possible for surgeons to operate through one or a few small incisions.

PATIENT CART Positioned alongside the bed, the patient cart holds the camera and instruments that the surgeon controls from the console.

THE DA VINCI XI SURGICAL SYSTEM

The da vinci Xi surgical system is the most capable system in the robotic surgical system series da vinci. It is the most advanced instrumentation, vision, and features such as integrated table motion. The da Vinci Xi is versatile and flexible, with setup automation and guidance that promotes OR efficiency. It provides multi-quadrant access and is used for a variety of complex procedures. Dr. S Rajasundaram is dedicated to helping patients undergo an exceptional experience through the use of the robotic surgical system as he can offer minimally invasive options for complex oncological surgical procedures.

VISION CART The vision cart makes communication between components possible and supports the 3D high-definition vision system.
