Robots in Surgery

A new era on medicine are expected to happen in the coming years. Due to the advances in the field of nanotechnology, nanodevice manufacturing has been growing gradually. From such achievements in nanotechnology, and recent results in biotechnology and genetics, the first operating biological nanorobots are expected to appear in the coming 5 years, and more complex diamondoid based nanorobots will become available in about 10 years. In terms of time it means a very near better future with significant improvements in medicine. In this work we present a practical approach taken on developing nanorobots for medicine in the sense of using computational nanomechatronics techniques as ancillary tools for investigating manufacturing design, nanosystems integration, sensing and actuation for medicine applications. Thus the work describes pathways that could enable design testability, but also help scientists and profit corporations in providing the helpful information needed to test and design integrated devises and solutions towards manufacturing biomedical nanorobots.
