Robotic Surgery at Children's Hospital Boston
Hiep Nguyen, a surgeon at Children’s Hospital Boston, is pioneering new, minimally invasive surgical techniques using a surgical robot.
One console on the surgical robot is named Wall-E, after the trash-collecting robot in Pixar’s animated film. The second console, named Eva after another character in the same movie, is a unique feature of the newest version of the robot. It allows two surgeons to operate together.
