 Robots Preforming Surgery?
Do you remember movies that have robots preforming surgery? Well now its real. Quote:
Flying cars and personal jetpacks may not yet be on the market, but patients at Cartersville Medical Center are now going under the knife with the aid of robots.
Known as the da Vinci Si Surgical System, this futuristic technology -- the first of its kind in northwest Georgia -- made its debut in Cartersville earlier this month. Billed as "the most advanced and state-of-the-art robotic surgical technology available," the da Vinci Si Surgical System is a tool for robot-assisted surgeries, currently aiding in gynecological and urological procedures at CMC.
Benefits of the minimally invasive procedure include less pain, less risk of infection, less scarring and a quicker recovery time. Surgeons benefit from the da Vinci system's visual clarity, added precision and dexterity.
"We are excited to offer this technology at Cartersville Medical Center," CMC CEO Keith Sandlin stated in a press release. "Robot-assisted surgery is a less-invasive option for many of our patients. This is a significant arrival because of the value it offers our surgical staff and the communities we serve."
