Telerobotic surgery control and safety

摘要

Deals with the developed researches and applications of telerobotic surgery. The paper outlines the following steps: (1) the execution of telesurgery robotic operation, using a satellite and a ISDN line as communication system; (2) the development of a telecontrol system used to remotely control a robotized system during the execution of a prostate biopsy on a human patient with a telerobotic system with optical fibers telecommunication; (3) the respect of normative for surgical robotics and surgical telerobotics in the hospitals and medical centers according to the European Normative (4) outline of some methods used in the telesurgical experiments developed at Politecnico di Milano to comply with the EU directives.
