Abstract

Today, the complexity and high technical requirements of neurosurgical operations are so demanding that modern robotic achievement and advances of accomplished technologies appears as the immanent means which can significantly improves Neurosurgical practices. The main objective of the present work is to study the modern technology in Neuroarms and Force sensing Grippers in robosissisted neuro surgery including Technological developments in Neuroarm, imaging guided surgery, microscopy, accuracy in motions of Neuro grippers which pushed the neurosurgeons to the limits of their dexterity and stamina.The future of robot- assisted neurosurgery, including the use of surgical simulation tools and methods to evaluate surgeon performance, is discussed. NeuroArm with 7 DOF and force-sensing grippers (1N gripping force) enables precise tumor removal. Image-guided surgery with MRI integration improves accuracy. Master-slave control with force feedback enhances surgical outcomes. A systematic approach has been applied to the development of a unique and dexterous neurosurgical robot. The system promises to enhance surgical performance, reduce fatigue and improve surgical outcomes due to microscope neurosurgery chances of completely removal of tumour tissues increases with Sophisticated controlling and positioning of grippers and neuroarm.
