(1) Background: In the last few years, technological developments in the surgical field have
been rapid and are continuously evolving. One of the most revolutionizing breakthroughs …

Background Tele-mentoring during surgery facilitates the transfer of surgical knowledge
from a mentor (specialist surgeon) to a mentee (operating surgeon). The aim of this work is …

Background: Telementoring technologies enable a remote mentor to guide a mentee in real-
time during surgical procedures. This addresses challenges, such as lack of expertise and …

Background Recent tele‐mentoring technologies for minimally invasive surgery (MIS)
augments the operative field with movements of virtual surgical instruments as visual cues …

The interfacing mechanism of a robotic scope assistant system assists a surgeon to
maneuver a scope for visualization of the operative field during laparoscopic surgery. The …

Objective The objective of this feasibility study was to develop and assess a tele-ultrasound
system that would enable an expert sonographer (situated at the remote site) to provide real …

The work assesses the efficacy of computer based remote tele-mentoring system (ie when
the mentor and mentee are physically separated) for teaching minimally invasive surgical …

Surgery is primarily taught through mentoring, where an expert mentor supervises a mentee
performing surgery, taking over when necessary. Telementoring systems aim to provide …

With growing popularity of robotic surgery, education becomes increasingly important and
urgently needed. However, experienced surgeons have limited accessibility due to busy …

Aim The aim of this study was to verify the clinical feasibility of tele‐proctoring using our ultra‐
low latency communication system with shared internet access. Methods Connections …
