The Experimental Operating Theatre and connected Simulation Room form a translational research platform where clinicians and researchers collaborate to improve future patient therapy. The operating theatre offers a realistic surgical setting with cutting-edge equipment for the development of innovative surgical concepts and methods. Data from devices and technologies can be utilized for the design of novel context-aware assistance systems for surgical procedures and surgical training.
Experimental Operating Theatre & Simulation Room
Our platform offers:
- a fully equipped integrated operating theatre for preclinical studies
- a powerful digital infrastructure which yields a wealth of data to optimise surgical therapies
- top-tier medical equipment available to all NCT/UCC members for approved research purposes
Our focus is the development of novel robotic and image-guided surgical methods with the following equipment available for research projects:
- robotic assistance for minimally invasive surgery using the da Vinci® Xi surgical system
- 3D endoscopic imaging
- intraoperative image guidance by CT, ultrasound, surgical microscope
- computer-assisted navigation for liver surgery
