Canadian doctors used robot to perform surgery to treat brain aneurysm

In a first, Canadian doctors have used a robot to perform a surgery to treat brain aneurysm.

The medical condition is a weakness in a blood vessel in the brain that balloons and fills with blood.

The experimental procedure was described at the  International Stroke Conference-2020, held in the United States.

The surgery was performed on a 64-year-old female patient.

the ability to deliver rapid care through remote robotics for time-critical procedures such as stroke could have a huge impact on improving patient outcomes.

It will also allow surgeons to deliver cutting-edge care to patients everywhere, regardless of geography.
