June 2025 - 8 articles

Cover Story: This perspective work focuses on the transformative role of robotics in orthopedic surgery, enhancing precision and efficiency. The work details the evolution of robotic systems such as ROBODOC, Mako, and Da Vinci, outlining their contributions to procedures such as total knee and hip replacements. It also discusses future trends, including the integration of AI, augmented reality, personalized implants, and the potential for telesurgery. Challenges such as high costs, the learning curve, and regulatory concerns are noted; however, the field is poised for significant growth and innovation in orthopedic care. View this paper
