Abstract

The da Vinci® Surgical System is currently the most frequently used computer-enhanced endoscopic instrument control system capable of laparoscopic surgery. The system contains a surgical console, a surgical cart, and a vision cart. Core characteristics include the physical separation of the surgeon from the patient, a three-dimensional stereoscopic image with up to ten times magnification, wrist action of the instruments providing seven degrees of freedom with intuitive control, and several software features.
