Global Neurobotics: Integration of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics in Neurosurgical Procedures in Improved Diagnosis and Treatment

Innovation and technology remain at the forefront of the continued development of healthcare systems across the world, particularly in the neurological field. Studies show the need to further investigate the potential negative effects of robot-assisted procedures on healthcare staff in neurosurgery need further investigation. Moreover, implementing robotics and IoT in neurovascular interventions and interactive health robotics deems to enhance healthcare services in neurosurgery. Thus, the study explores the use of robotics in neurosurgical procedures in improving diagnosis accuracy, surgical precision, and healthcare delivery, among others. By investigating recent advancements, challenges, and the effectiveness of robotics and AI in neurosurgery, it aims to conduct a literature review on AI and robotics integration in neurosurgery, extrapolating data, and formulating strategies and guidelines tailored to the specific needs of the current neurosurgical field. Results indicate that robotics and AI can reduce trauma and improve surgical outcomes. Advancements like the Mazor Family and ROSA robots have expanded applications in neurosurgery. However, solid research supporting the importance of these technologies is limited. Creating specialized robotic systems may take time, but AI integration positively impacts diagnosis and treatment. Nonetheless, the future of neurosurgery holds promise for improved patient care and surgical interventions.
