An experimental feasibility study on robotic endonasal telesurgery.
BACKGROUND Novel robots have recently been developed specifically for endonasal surgery. They can deliver several thin, tentacle-like surgical instruments through a single nostril. Among the many potential advantages of such a robotic system is the prospect of telesurgery over long distances. OBJECTIVE To describe a phantom pituitary tumor removal done by a surgeon in Nashville, Tennessee, co...

متن کاملOptimal Energy Management and Feasibility Study of a Hybrid Energy System for a Remote Area
This paper investigates impacts of possible chances in energy policy and consumption behavior on optimal energy management and feasibility study of a hybrid energy system. The study was performed on a remote area near Esfarjan, a village located in Shahreza, Iran. In the main scenario, the current energy policy is applied while the consumption behavior of customers is studied by means of an inc...
متن کاملRobotic Telesurgery: Benefits Beyond Barriers
The idea of robotic telesurgery dates back to the 1970s when the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) developed a project to utilize remotely controlled robots to perform surgeries on astronauts [1]. The history of robotic surgery begins in 1985, when Kwoh et al used a robot Puma 200, for performing neurosurgical biopsies with greater precision [2]. This was soon followed by the...
