Scientists have come one step closer to development of a computerized 3D model that lets surgeons use robotics may actually start performing surgery, with the help of an arm is here. //
Rogério Richa, Philippe Poignet and Chao Liu from France's Montpellier Laboratory of Informatics, Robotics, and Microelectronics, have come up with the "thin-plate spline deformable model" that tracks the motion of the heart's surface as it beats.
