Canadian-made surgery bot removes brain tumour
From CTVNews.ca:
A team of Calgary surgeons has successfully used a robot to remove a tumour from a young woman's brain.
The surgical robotic system, called NeuroArm, helped surgeons remove the tumour from 21-year-old Paige Nickason.
"I had to have the tumour removed anyway so I was happy to help by being a part of this historical surgery," Nickason said in a statement from her hospital room less then 24 hours after her May 12 operation.
