Doctors were 5000 Km away from the patient, operated on lung tumor with the help of a robot

We are already familiar with words like AI (Artificial Intelligence), machine learning and robots. All these technologies are gradually becoming a part of our lives. The use of technology in the health care sector has increased a lot. A new example of this has been seen in China.

In fact, a surgery has been done in China with the help of robots from a distance of 5000 kilometers. The surgeon at Shanghai Chest Hospital has done a remote operation with the help of his colleagues. They have removed the tumor from the victim’s lung.

Operation done from 5000 Km away

At the time of the operation, the surgeon was in Shanghai, while the victim and the surgical robot were present in Kashgar, Xinjiang. There is a distance of 5000 kilometers between the two areas. This surgery was done on July 13. This entire operation was led by Doctor Luo Qingquan.

According to the Shanghai Daily report, this is the first hospital in China in which chest surgery has been done with the help of a robot. Along with robot surgery, Shanghai Chest Hospital is doing research and development in robot technology.

There is such machine in India too

India also has a similar surgical robot system, which has been developed by Dr. Sudhir Srivastava’s SSI Mantra. Using this robot system, doctors will be able to perform surgery even when they are not near the patient. The Indian surgical robot is a modular design, which has 5 arms, which can be detached.

For this operation, the surgeon has to sit at the console station, which has a 32-inch monitor and provides 3D vision. It also has safety cameras, which detect the presence of the doctor. If the doctor looks here and there, the surgery stops. In India, surgery has been done through robots from a distance of 40 kilometers.
