Article Synopsis
- A new robot-guided laser system called CARLO has been developed to improve bone osteotomy procedures by addressing the limitations of traditional surgical tools.
- The CARLO device utilizes a 2.94-µm Er:YAG laser and successfully performed a planned Le Fort I osteotomy on a 19-year-old patient with high accuracy and no safety concerns.
- While CARLO showed promising results, further improvements in the technical workflow and additional research on safety and cost-effectiveness are needed before it can be widely adopted in surgery.
