In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Robotic assisted surgery has been performed for more than two decades with good success and safety profile. However, there was only one dominating robotic surgical system available in the past which led to high cost for robotic surgery. Recently, a new robotic surgical system (Sentire Robotic Surgical System) was introduced by researchers of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK). This new robotic surgical system aims to achieve similar outcomes and standards of robotic surgery performed using the dominating system but with a significantly lower cost. The technologic innovation and development of this new robotic system is made by the Cornerstone Robotics Limited, which is based in Hong Kong. In a pilot clinical study conducted at Prince of Wales Hospital involving 55 patients, the Sentire Robotic Surgical System had demonstrated high success rate with minimal complications in patien
