Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the aging of the global population and the increase in the number of patients with chronic diseases and disabilities, traditional medical treatment and rehabilitation methods are facing challenges, such as insufficient resources and inefficiency. By combining artificial intelligence, robotics, and precision medicine, medical and rehabilitation robots can provide efficient and accurate solutions for surgery, diagnosis, rehabilitation, and other fields.
This Special Issue aims to explore recent advances and technologies in the field of medical and rehabilitation robots, providing doctors and academics with new solutions and perspectives on medical problems.
