This paper presents the development of a robotic system for the rehabilitation and quality of life improvement of children with cerebral palsy (CP). The system consists of four modules and is based on a virtual humanoid robot that is meant to motivate and encourage children in their rehabilitation programs. The efficiency of the developed system was tested on two children with CP.

The epidural injection is a medical intervention to inject therapeutics directly into the vicinity of the spinal cord for pain management. Because of its proximity to the spinal cord, imprecise insertion of the needle may result in irreversible damage to the nerves or spinal cord. This study explores enhancing procedural accuracy by integrating a telerobotic system and augmented reality (AR) assistance.

: This study aims to evaluate and compare the safety and efficacy of the da Vinci Xi and hinotori™ SRS robot-assisted surgical systems for gynecologic disorders. : We conducted a retrospective study of 401 cases (43 benign uterine tumors; 88 pelvic organ prolapses; 270 low-risk endometrial cancers) of robot-assisted surgery performed at Kagoshima University Hospital between January 2017 and October 2024. Surgical factors such as the operative time, blood loss, and complication rates were analyzed and compared between the da Vinci Xi (332 cases) and hinotori™ SRS (69 cases) systems.
