Abstract
In recent years, with the continuous research of surgical robot technology in different countries in the world, robot-assisted surgery has made great progress.Because of its ddvantages, such as of minimally invasive, accurate and less complications, it is more widely used in clinical applications.Cranio-maxillofacial surgery robots are still in the research stage, and digital technologies such as surgical navigation systems, mixed reality systems, artificial intelligence, etc. that can be combined with them are still inadequate.This article reviews the research status and application of craniofacial surgery robots and proposes its future development direction.
Key words:
Robotic surgical procedures; Craniomaxillofacial surgery; Artificial intelligence; Surgical navigation systems; Augmented reality
