【新華社】China-U.S. co-founded robotic surgery training center inaugurated
? ? ? GUANGZHOU, Sept. 20 (Xinhua) -- The International Robotic Surgery Training Center, jointly established by Chinese and U.S. institutions, was inaugurated in Guangzhou, capital city of south China's Guangdong Province, on Tuesday.
? ? ?The center was jointly established by the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou and UC Berkeley. It will provide training on robotic surgeries to trainees from China, the United States and other Asia-Pacific countries.
? ? ? The center, covering an area of 1,200 square meters in the Nansha Division of the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, is equipped with two sets of the state-of-the-art fourth-generation da Vinci Xi surgical robotic system, other devices needed in surgeries, as well as demonstration and broadcasting systems.
? ? ? The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University started using da Vinci robotic surgical systems in 2015, and has completed 4,457 robotic surgeries since then.
? ? ? According to the hospital, compared with traditional endoscopy, the robotic surgical systems have unique advantages, including three-dimensional and high-definition vision for operators, as well as dexterous robotic arms. Moreover, the use of robotic surgery systems enables operators to perform surgeries while seated, making them less prone to fatigue.?
