I should have thought of this in the first place! The hospital where I work is pioneering new research into robotic surgery and yesterday a demo robot, complete with computer was on display so that visitors could have a go – but not on patients! When surgeons use robot assistance they sit at a computer guiding the procedure on a 3D screen and it is believed that the technology reduces stress for clinicians as well as promoting faster recovery after complex surgery and reduced blood loss. It was fascinating to watch a visitor try it and I would have loved to as well but my lunch break was nearly over. Of course I only had my mobile so the pics aren’t the best quality.




Amazing details!
What a neat experience Gilly. And seriously, I think the phones nowadays take great photos! So, these are more than fine. Margie
Mindboggling. I guess all those computer games will come in handy for surgeons now. Ha ha.
I’m so glad the visitors don’t get to practise on the patients. 🙂 The concept of robotic surgery is mind blowing. Nothing wrong with your pics, Gilly. 🙂
Very interesting, Gilly. I don’t know if I’d want to be operated on by a robot though!
WOW! Thanks for sharing this amazing machine. Great in the details post.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
“…it is believed that the technology reduces stress for clinicians as well as promoting faster recovery after complex surgery and reduced blood loss…” – very interesting!
That is totally cool. Very futuristic.
Wow! Now that is tiny detail!
Fascinating!
What a neat experience!
The medical field is always improving. It’s a bit scarey. Technology is developing really fast. I like this entry very much. Thanks for posting, Gilly. It’s informative as well as perfect for the challenge.
Very interesting, Gilly.
Great interpretation Gilly!
Beautiful post Gilly 🙂
AWESOME post, Gilly. Very interesting, something we don’t usually see. I’ll echo IT, very futuristic.
extraordinary … a glimpse of the future!
Fascinating. I’ve heard a lot about robots and robotic surgery, but NEVER seen anything of what it’s really like. Thanks so much.
incredible…so glad you had a phone with you at least
