The RAS is an emerging medical technology that can help standardize surgical procedures and enable surgeons to perform complex surgeries. The training centre will offer a broad spectrum of training to enhance the knowledge and skillset in RAS, ranging from basic skill training to procedural training to more advanced and specialised areas in soft-tissue surgery.
Further, the official said, “The training will help impart procedural knowledge skills using surgical robotics among surgeons, fellows and residents from across the country. Setting up a robotic surgery training facility at the AIIMS, New Delhi puts the institution as well as the nation on the world map by being a one-of-its-kind centre in a government-aided medical institution to impart such training in this part of the world.”
The AIIMS has always been at the forefront of improving patients’ access to quality care and setting up the surgical robotics training centre is a step in that direction, the official added.
