A medical robot is a robot that allows surgeons greater access to areas under operation using more precise and less invasive methods. They are in most telemanipulators, which use the surgeon's actions on one side to control the "effector" on the other side.〔(Medical Robotics )〕〔(Medical Robots: Current Systems and Research Directions )〕 ==Types of medical robots== ; Surgical robots : These robots either allow surgical operations to be carried out with greater precision than an unaided human surgeon, or allow remote surgery where a human surgeon is not physically present with the patient. ; Rehabilitation robots : This group facilitates and supports the lives of infirm, elderly people, or those with dysfunction of body parts effecting movement. These robots are also used for rehabilitation and related procedures, such as training and therapy. ; Biorobots : A group of robots designed to imitate the cognition of humans and animals. ; Telepresence robots: Allow off-site medical professionals to move, look around, communicate, and participate from remote locations. ; Pharmacy automation: Robotic systems to dispense oral solids in a retail pharmacy setting or preparing sterile IV admixtures in a hospital pharmacy setting. ; Disinfection robot: has the capability to disinfect a whole room in mere minutes, generally using ultraviolet light technology.
