Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: New methods of imaging and image-guidance technology have the potential to provide surgeons with spatially accurate three-dimensional information about the location and anatomical relationships of critical subsurface structures and instrument position updated and displayed during the performance of surgery. Robotic platforms and technology in various forms continues to revolutionize surgery and will soon incorporate image guidance. RECENT RESEARCH: Image-guided surgery (IGS) for abdominal and urologic interventions presents complex engineering and surgical challenges along with potential benefits to surgeons and patients. Key concepts such as registration, localization, accuracy, and targeting error are necessary for surgeons to understand and utilize the potential of IGS. Standard robotic surgeries, such as partial nephrectomy and radical prostatectomy may soon incorporate IGS. SUMMARY: Research continues to explore the potential for combining image guidance and robotics to augment and improve a variety of surgical interventions.
