Minimally Invasive and Robotic Surgery
One of the most technologically advanced robotic surgery devices, the da Vinci Surgical System is utilized for surgical treatment of prostate and bladder cancer and is the number one choice of treatment for localized prostate cancer. The da Vinci Surgical System works by allowing a surgeon, seated at a nearby console, to manipulate the robotic arms of the machine. The surgeon moves their hand just as he/she would during a normal surgery allowing the robot to mimic all of the surgeon's movements.
