How Do Bone-Milling Robots Like ROSA Assist in Neurosurgery?

šŸ’” The Answer

  • ROSA uses preoperative imaging to plan precise skull entry points and trajectories.
  • The robot physically guides the surgeon's drill or milling tool to avoid critical brain structures.
  • It can hold instruments at a fixed depth and angle, reducing human error during deep brain stimulation.
  • This technology shortens surgery time and improves accuracy for epilepsy and tumor biopsies.
