Project Description
Minimally invasive surgery is advantageous for both patients and surgeons, reducing healing time and hospital stays. However,techniques such as suturing require a wide range of motion. The Journal of Medical Devices published a paper proposing a new medical robot that can perform dexterous suturing. This poster summarizes the unique movements and capabilities of the surgical robot in a way that could be advertised to interested medical professionals and promote sales/support development of the device.
