ROBO-SIM is a novel software for minimally invasive neurosurgery planning and simulation. It utilizes patient data for virtual surgery, enhancing pre-operative preparation and robotic guidance.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Medical Simulation
  • Robotic Surgery

Background:

  • Minimally invasive neurosurgery requires advanced planning and simulation tools.
  • Current systems often lack the ability to incorporate patient-specific data for realistic simulations.
  • Integration with robotic systems for intra-operative guidance is a growing area of development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the ROBO-SIM software system for neurosurgical planning and simulation.
  • To highlight ROBO-SIM's unique capabilities, including patient-specific data utilization and enhanced planning functionalities.
  • To introduce the concept of defining 'go- and non-go-areas' for robotic surgical assistance.

Main Methods:

  • Development of the ROBO-SIM software system.
