New Mayo Clinic research has found that robotic surgery for vaginal prolapse dramatically reduces patient hospital stay and recovery time. These findings are being presented this week at the North Central Section of the American Urological Association in Scottsdale, Ariz. http://www.physorg.com/news176992390.html Medicine & Health Mon, 09 Nov 2009 12:50:04 EST news176992390 Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University's School of Computer Science have developed a new method for systematically identifying bugs in aircraft collision avoidance systems, high-speed train controls and other complex, computer-controlled devices, collectively known as cyber-physical systems (CPS). http://www.physorg.com/news159448202.html Technology Mon, 20 Apr 2009 12:10:30 EST news159448202 (PhysOrg.com) -- The results of proof-of-feasibility studies lead the researchers to believe that routine medical procedures such as breast biopsies will be performed in the future with minimal human guidance, and at greater convenience and less cost to patients. http://www.physorg.com/news153510630.html Medicine & Health Tue, 10 Feb 2009 17:51:08 EST news153510630 The use of a robot to assist with the most commonly performed weight-loss surgery appears to significantly lower a patient's risk of developing a rare but serious complication, according to a study published in the most recent edition of the Journal of Robotic Surgery. http://www.physorg.com/news141484668.html Medicine & Health Wed, 24 Sep 2008 14:17:48 EST news141484668 Robotic surgery, largely pioneered for prostate cancer surgery, is rapidly being adapted for use in other areas, including for bladder cancer patients. Urologic surgeons at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center now have significant experience -- and have demonstrated considerable success -- with robotics for removal of the bladder, also known as cystectomy. Their findings are published in a recent edition of the peer-reviewed publication, the British Journal of Urology-International. http://www.physorg.com/news136634107.html Medicine & Health Wed, 30 Jul 2008 10:55:07 EST news136634107
