Abstract

The increasing popularity of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy has put the field of robotics in the spotlight. However, the relationship between medical robotics and the field of urology is older than most urologists know and it will most likely have a bright future beyond any contemporary application. The objective of this review is to provide an insight into the fundamentals of medical robotics and to highlight the history, the present and the future of urological robotic systems with an emphasis on robotic prostate interventions.

摘要

机器人辅助根治性前列腺切除术日益普及，使机器人技术领域备受关注。然而，医用机器人技术与泌尿外科领域的关系比大多数泌尿外科医生所了解的更为久远，而且其未来很可能会在任何当代应用之外拥有光明的前景。本综述的目的是深入了解医用机器人技术的基本原理，并着重介绍泌尿外科机器人系统的历史、现状和未来，重点是机器人前列腺手术。
