Abstract The number of robot-assisted minimally invasive surgeries is increasing annually, together with the need for dedicated and effective training. Surgeons to learn how address novel control modalities surgical instruments loss haptic feedback, which a common feature most robots. High-fidelity physical simulation has proved be valid training tool, it might help in fulfilling these learning needs. In this regard, high-fidelity sensorized simulator vascular structures was designed,...
Robot-assisted surgery (RAS) involves mastering surgical instruments facing the absence of haptic feedback, thus prolonging learning curves [1]. Applying excessive force to delicate tissues, such as blood vessels, can lead serious intraoperative events like bleeding [2], causing conversion open in emergency. Surgeons need develop skills visually determine tissue deformation – so called visual - and hand-eye coordination [3]. Training is crucial prevent adverse occurrences, simulation has...
