More About the Webinar
The webinar explores the future of surgical robotics, moving beyond current hardware-centric approaches to focus on intelligent autonomy. The core aspiration for 2035 is to achieve surgical care that is precise, accessible, autonomous, scalable, safe, and equitable. The presentation critically examines the current state of surgical robotics, acknowledging that despite significant "buzz," these robots are largely absent from most surgeries. It delves into the reasons behind this limited adoption, including potential underestimation of complexity and competition. The discussion highlights "the hidden hand" – what is currently unknown or not fully understood in the field. It outlines the "logical next steps" in terms of technology, pricing, and access, envisioning a transition from a mere "robot-in-the-room" to advanced task autonomy, and a shift from traditional sales models to "surgical-as-a-service." The presentation concludes by posing the crucial question of how to responsibly build a future for surgical robotics that is both inevitable and ethical.
