During knee replacement surgery, damaged or worn-out regions of the knee joint are removed and replaced with artificial implants. In a robotic total knee replacement, surgeons employ computed tomography (CT) scans to construct a virtual model of the patient's knee.

With that model as a guide, the surgeon then utilizes the robotic arm to accurately place the new knee components.

What is Robotic-Assisted Knee Replacement?

Robotic-assisted knee replacement surgery is an alternative to the conventional knee replacement procedure. It is performed using robotic-arm technology that allows your surgeon to precisely perform the surgery through a smaller incision as compared to traditional surgery.
