Dr. Narayanan begins by sharing his initial interest in robotic applications for tumor ablations, aiming to maximize efficiency in his practice. Dr. Tutton then highlights the advantages of robotics for probe placement, especially in challenging cases. The two doctors discuss the logistics of the robotic system, including setup, imaging, and access choices. They also reflect on the learning curve associated with robotics and how it gradually enhances procedural efficiency while reducing mental fatigue. This improvement allows them to take on more complex cases with confidence. Overall, both experts agree that robotics has the potential to democratize minimally invasive procedures, offering new opportunities for skill development and advancement within the field of interventional radiology.
