Robots are used for surgical procedures for many years now. I was told by one of my friends a few years ago that for a procedure he underwent, robots were used. There are still people who have concerns about this and who opt out of robots performing the procedure for them. There are also people who think robots are better than humans for this purpose as they will be more accurate and less likely to make mistakes like humans.
AI-driven surgical robots are gaining prominence in healthcare. There are big technology companies investing in this area and there is tremendous growth seen in North America.
As technology and algorithms used for this purpose get better, we may see this trend growing and in many cases will be beneficial for people. I am sharing this blog for awareness purposes.
