This system displays its 3-dimensional image above the hands of the surgeon so that it gives the surgeon the illusion that the tips of the instruments are an extension of the control grips, thus giving the impression of being at the surgical site. (Lanfranco, et al., 2004, Para. 12) Some of the surgeries that Zeus and Da Vinci are capable of performing are; Transoral Robotic surgery (TORS), Bladder Cancer, Colorectal Cancer, Coronary Artery Disease, Endometriosis, Gynecologic Cancer, Heavy Uterine Bleeding, Kidney Disorder, Kidney Cancer, Mitral Valve Prolapse, Obesity, Prostate Cancer, Throat Cancer, Uterine Fibroids, and Uterine Prolapse. The numbers of procedures these systems can perform are growing as the medical community because more familiar with these systems. Catheter-Based Robotic Intervention Another type of robotic surgery is the catheter-based robotic intervention. There are two different types of catheter-based robotic intervention technologies in uses currently, electromechanically based systemShow MoreRelatedDeveloping Management Skills404131 Words   |  1617 Pagesmymanagementlab is an online assessment and preparation solution for courses in Principles of Management, Human Resources, Strategy, and Organizational Behavior that helps you actively study and prepare material for class.
