Scientists have created a robotic system which did just that in living animals without a real doctor pulling the strings. Much like engineers are designing self-driving cars, the medical research is part of a move toward autonomous surgical robots, removing the surgeons hands from certain tasks that a machine might perform all by itself.Doctors wouldnt leave the bedside theyre supposed to watch. Plus theyd handle the rest of the surgery. In small tests using pigs, the robotic arm performed at least as well, and in some cases a bit better, as some competing surgeons in stitching together intestinal(肠的) tissue. “The purpose wasnt to replace surgeons, ”said Dr. Kim who led the project. “If you have all intelligent tool that works with a surgeon, can it improve the outcome? Thats what we have done.”If youve heard about machines like the popular Da Vinci system, you might think robots already are operating. Not really. Today many hospitals offer robot-assisted surgery where surgeons use the machinery as tools that they control by hand to operate through tiny openings in the body. But robot-assisted surgery has been controversial, as some studies have shown it can bring higher costs without better outcomes.Kims team at Childrens Sheikh Zayed Institute invented the new STAR systemit stands for Smart Tissue Autonomous Robotworks sort of like a programmable sewing machine. They added sensors to help guide each stitch and tell how tightly to pull. But the approach wasnt perfect. In the living animals, the robot took much longer and made a few stitching mistakes while the surgeon sewing by hand made none. Kim said the robot can be sped up. He hopes to begin human studies in two or three years.1、Whats the best title for the text?AA new robotic systemBA new-style way of stitchingCThe newly-designed driverless vehiclesDRobot surgeons one step closer to reality2、
