… This shift may mean that dexterity and basic surgical skills may decline as the
technologies are introduced, with implications for training and accreditation. At the same
time, pattern recognition and self-learning algorithms will improve, allowing medical robotics
an increasingly larger role in higher levels of autonomy. If robot performance proves to be
superior to that of humans, should we put our trust in fully autonomous medical robots? …
The regulatory, ethical, and legal barriers imposed on medical robots necessitate careful consideration of different levels of autonomy, as well as the context for use.
