Abstract
Today, robot-assisted surgery and the use of robots in medicine marks a qualitatively new stage in the development of minimally invasive technologies and endovideosurgery, due to the high level of accuracy, functionality and ergonomics of modern robotic systems. With the help of robotic technologies, the quality of diagnostic manipulations as well as the results of therapeutic procedures and surgical interventions are significantly improved, which ultimately leads to an improved prognosis and quality of life for patients, while also expanding the capabilities of clinicians. This review article presents the main historical milestones and prerequisites for the development of automation and robotic technologies used in various industries, from ancient times to the present. The history of the use of robotic procedures in various fields of medicine is briefly described. Special attention is paid to robot-assisted surgery as one of the main bases for applying modern technologies. At the moment, we can safely say that medical robotics plays a very important role in the development of surgery of the future.
