Overview of the vascular interventional robot

Conventional vascular interventional surgery (VIS) is manually performed under fluoroscopic guidance, requiring lead protection for the surgeons. In order to reduce the X‐ray irradiation, the robot has been introduced to VIS in this study. The purpose of this article is to provide a comprehensive summary of the vascular interventional robot (VIR).
