Carrying out simulated robot-aided brain surgery
Robot-aided surgery. Technician carrying out simulated robot-aided brain surgery. This minimally invasive surgery (MIS) system enables delicate neurosurgery to be carried out with a precision of a thousandth of a millimetre. The seated surgeon controls the robot using a joystick while viewing the operation site on the enlarged screen. The intelligent robot (upper left) can manipulate various instruments through a small incision in the head. MIS is safer than conventional surgery, in addition to reducing patient pain and recovery times. The robot was developed by a team from the Fraunhofer Institute in Germany headed by Angela Hiller

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness a groundbreaking moment in the field of medicine - simulated robot-aided brain surgery. The image showcases a skilled technician carrying out this revolutionary procedure with utmost precision and expertise. The focal point of the photograph is the seated surgeon, who controls the intelligent robot using a joystick while closely observing the operation site on an enlarged screen. This state-of-the-art minimally invasive surgery (MIS) system allows for delicate neurosurgery to be performed with unparalleled accuracy, reaching levels as precise as one thousandth of a millimeter. Developed by Angela Hiller's team from Germany's esteemed Fraunhofer Institute, this remarkable robot possesses incredible dexterity and can manipulate various instruments through a small incision in the patient's head. Not only does MIS ensure safer surgical procedures compared to traditional methods, but it also significantly reduces patient pain and recovery times. This extraordinary fusion of technology and medical expertise represents a significant leap forward in healthcare. As we gaze upon this print captured by Science Photo Library, we are reminded of how innovation continues to push boundaries within our ever-evolving world.
