Robots have entered into many aspects of human life, including medical science. The impact of robotics on medicine is undeniable. Robots can be defined as "automatically controlled multitask manipulators, which are freely programmable in three or more axes." The success of robots is based on their precision, lack of fatigue, and speed of action. Medical robotics is a promising field that really took off in the 1990s. Since then, a wide variety of medical applications have emerged: laboratory robots, surgical training, remote surgery, telemedicine and teleconsultation, rehabilitation and hospital robots. There are, however, many challenges in the widespread implementation of robotics in the medical field, mainly due to issues such as safety, precision, cost and reluctance to accept this technology. Medical robotics includes a number of devices used for surgery, medical training, rehabilitation therapy, prosthetics, and assistance to people with disabilities. Robotic surgery has been successfully implemented in several hospitals around the globe and has received world wide acceptance. This paper provides an overview of the impact of robots in multiple medical domains, which is one of the most active areas for research and development of robots.
