====== Robotic neurosurgery systems ====== see https://moffitt.org/media/4327/352.pdf Technically, surgical robots can be divided into passive or active systems. A passive system is one in which the surgeon provides the physical energy to drive the surgical tool ((Mckay-Davies I, Bann S, Darzi A. Robotics in surgery. Student BMJ. 2002;10:215–258.)). Some commonly used robots available for neurosurgery are the [[neuromate]] (Renishaw Mayfield, Lyon, France), [[Pathfinder]] (Prosurgics, High Wycombe, United Kingdom), the [[NeuroArm]] (University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada), the [[SpineAssist]] (MAZOR Robotics, Orlando, Florida), and [[Renaissance]] (MAZOR Robotics).
