Robot-assisted surgery: reaching the cochlear safely

Dear Sir or Madam,

Autopilots are common practice in aviation. In surgery, they come in the form of robots and still are unknown territory. Robots are only assisting surgeons, as they only deliver their power, endurance and precision on the push of a button. Researchers from Bern now have tested what it looks like when cochlear implantation partly is performed by a robot using an autopilot. Read more about this in our interview.

Enjoy reading,

For many years, cochlear implants have restored a sense of hearing in people with certain types of hearing loss. For surgeons, the implantation requires a precise attention to detail under the microscope. The results for the patients improve significantly with a more precise placement of the electrode array. The use of a surgical robot can increase the accuracy of the procedure.
