Space delays during surgery? No sweat. A team of surgeons showed a robot can safely slice through rubber bands in space, in research that could one day help faraway astronauts.

A miniature robot has suceeded an operation on the International Space Station for the first time - by remote control from Earth. Astronauts are not the only ones to benefit from this technology: Remote surgical operations are intended to improve medical care in regions with a shortage of surgeons.

A compact, remotely-operated robotic surgeon was recently tested aboard the ISS, a space station orbiting our planet 250 miles above the ground with no ready access points...

Experiment conducted from Virtual Incisions headquarters and lasted around two hours

Virtual Incision believes the successful demonstration of MIRA would mean that the system could help medical professionals assist remote rural communities.

A miniaturized surgical robot developed by a UNL professor and his colleagues has successfully accomplished its first mission in space.

AFP – Earth-bound surgeons remotely controlled a small robot aboard the International Space Station (ISS) over the weekend, conducting the first-ever such surgery in orbit – albeit on rubber bands. The experiment, deemed a “huge success” by the participants, represented a new step in the development of space surgery, which could become necessary to treat […]

Scientists are taking surgeries to space.
