Advancements in RAS (robotic-assisted
surgery) systems have led to a small robot that
allows surgeons to obtain full multi-quadrant
access without the need for docking and
redocking a large, cumbersome external
platform. (Credit: Virtual Incision)

he advancements in the design of robotic-assisted surgery
(RAS) systems continue to aim toward enabling
operations to be performed through small incisions.
This is done by providing the surgeon the ability to
control robotic arms and cameras with precision. The
goal of RAS is to help surgeons perform procedures reproducibly
in a minimally invasive manner, which, in turn, can lead to
advantages such as reduced pain and shorter hospital stays.
As demand for RAS continues to grow, facilities are seeking
ways to accelerate the expansion of their programs. The goal of
Virtual Incision (Lincoln, NE) is to offer a way for facilities to add
systems and improve their efficiency without disrupting their existing
infrastructure. To do this, the company designed and manufactured
MIRA, the world's first miniaturized RAS platform that
aims to be easily transported and set up in any operating room.
The system is made up of MIRA, a surgeon console that provides
complete control of the MIRA instrument arms and endoscopic
vision of the anatomy in real-time, and a companion cart to easily
transport equipment (see Figure 1). Setup is designed to be
straightforward. The goal is to enable the 90 percent of operating
rooms that do not currently have access to an RAS system to now
have access so that an increased number of patients can be served.
