远程操作的医疗机器人系统允许在利用有线和/或无线通信网络的同时跨短距离或长距离进行诸如手术、治疗和诊断的过程。本研究对2004年至2015年的相关文献进行了系统回顾，重点关注在研究期间出现巨大增长的医疗遥控机器人系统。远程机器人系统讨论设计概念，使技术（即机器人操作，电信和视觉系统），并在临床实践中的潜在应用提供了一个彻底的见解，同时也突出了现有的限制和未来的趋势。短距离病例的代表性范例是达芬奇手术系统，对其进行描述是为了突出相关问题。远距离遥控机器人的概念是通过诊断超声扫描的案例研究。此外，本审查提供了一个短距离和长距离遥控机器人系统的分类，这取决于它们的操作距离。遥控机器人系统相对于其应用领域进一步分类。对于审查的系统也检查他们的工程特性和所采用的机器人技术。该领域的现状，其意义，潜力，以及未来的挑战进行了深入的讨论。
Teleoperated medical robotic systems allow procedures such as surgeries, treatments, and diagnoses to be conducted across short or long distances while utilizing wired and/or wireless communication networks. This study presents a systematic review of the relevant literature between the years 2004 and 2015, focusing on medical teleoperated robotic systems which have witnessed tremendous growth over the examined period. A thorough insight of telerobotics systems discussing design concepts, enabling technologies (namely robotic manipulation, telecommunications, and vision systems), and potential applications in clinical practice is provided, while existing limitations and future trends are also highlighted. A representative paradigm of the short-distance case is the da Vinci Surgical System which is described in order to highlight relevant issues. The long-distance telerobotics concept is exemplified through a case study on diagnostic ultrasound scanning. Moreover, the present review provides a classification into short- and long-distance telerobotic systems, depending on the distance from which they are operated. Telerobotic systems are further categorized with respect to their application field. For the reviewed systems are also examined their engineering characteristics and the employed robotics technology. The current status of the field, its significance, the potential, as well as the challenges that lie ahead are thoroughly discussed.
