Abstract:
Innovations in robotics, virtual and augmented reality, and artificial intelligence are being rapidly adopted as tools of "digital surgery". Despite its quickly emerging role, digital surgery is not well understood. A recent study defines the term itself, and then specifies ethical issues specific to the field. These include privacy and public trust, consent, and litigation.
