Artificial intelligence for robotic surgery
An apparatus for robotic surgery comprises a processor configured with instructions to receive patient data from treated patients, receive surgical robotics data for each of the plurality of treated patients, and output a treatment plan of a patient to be treated in response to the patient data and the surgical robotics data. This approach has the advantage of accommodating individual variability among patients and surgical system parameters so as to provide improved treatment outcomes.
