Telelap Alf-x – A new telesurgical concept and sytem.

 

The NESA is collaborating with the Joint Research Centre (JRC) of the European Commission and SOFAR S.p.A. in Milan, Italy concerning a novel telesurgical system. It is a new concept called Telelap Alf-x. The advantages of this system are universality, tactile sensing, safety, 3D vision with an eye-tracking system and cost-effectiveness, as low-cost disposable or reusable instruments can be used. An International Scientific Advisory Board has been appointed which accompanies the preclinical studies.

 

Researchers from SOFAR and the NESA are developing a new type of console which allows the surgeon to feel the tissues in his or her fingertips. This makes the usage of the system as similar as possible to open surgery, with the advantages of endoscopy, bringing about a renaissance of abdominal surgery.
