Robot-Assisted Orthopedic Surgery

Robot has many advantages, such as precisely implanting devices, stable maneuver, and working in a toxic environment or a special space by remote control, in which the physician fails or even cannot perform surgeries. Therefore, since the 1880s, many scholars focused on the basic researches to advanced robotics technology and attempted to apply it in orthopedic surgeries.
