[National Medical Insurance Bureau convened a symposium of surgical robot experts] September 11th, according to the National Medical Insurance Bureau, on the morning of September 11, the National Medical Insurance Bureau organized a symposium of surgical robot experts. Huake Precision, Shanghai MicroPort, Medtronic, and Intuitive Fosun Representatives from seven domestic and foreign surgical robot manufacturers including Shenzhen Jingfeng, Beijing Tianzhihang, and Stryker, and representatives from five hospitals including Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital, Peking University People's Hospital, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Jishuitan Hospital, and Beijing Tongren Hospital participated in the discussion and exchange. Everyone generally agrees that the current functions of surgical robots need to continue to expand, from highly concentrated fields such as urology, orthopedics, and general surgery, to more precise efforts in areas such as brain surgery and interventional surgery, and to seamlessly integrate with the rapidly developing brain-computer interface technology to maximize the technical advantages of surgical robots. Surgical robots must also keep pace with cutting-edge technologies such as intelligent robots and artificial intelligence, constantly learn from good experiences in the use of robots in other fields, further enrich the scenarios for the use of surgical robots, and boldly imagine, carefully verify, and actively advance toward the goal of autonomous automation of some or all functions.
