- ItemA novel telemedicine method for viewing the open surgical field.(2002-09-24) Broderick, Timothy J; Russell, K Mitchell; Doarn, Charles R; Merrell, Ronald CThe surgical theater has undergone a series of transformations from an open stadium like environment to the closed environment of minimally invasive endoscopic surgery Paradoxically evolution from open surgery performed under direct vision to closed surgery performed through use of video images has been accompanied by improved viewing of the operative field by student observers The objective of these experiments was to determine if a laparoscope mounted on the operating table during open surgery would provide students a better view of the operative field than that provided while standing behind the operating surgeon or via an optimally positioned hand held video camera
- ItemThe role of low-bandwidth telemedicine in surgical prescreening.(2003-10-02) Lee, Sophia; Broderick, Timothy J; Haynes, Jeffrey; Bagwell, Charles; Doarn, Charles R; Merrell, Ronald CLow bandwidth Internet based telemedicine is an inexpensive technology that could help deliver heath care in medically underserved areas The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of low bandwidth telemedicine in remote surgical evaluation

- ItemTranscontinental telesurgical nephrectomy using the da Vinci robot in a porcine model.(2008-05-05) Sterbis, Joseph R; Hanly, Eric J; Herman, Barry C; Marohn, Michael R; Broderick, Timothy J; Shih, Samuel P; Harnett, Brett; Doarn, Charles; Schenkman, Noah SRobotic telesurgery has been demonstrated over long distances and offers theoretical benefits to urologic training and the care of patients in remote regions The multiple arms and three dimensional vision of the da Vinci robotic system provide a platform conducive to long distance telementoring and telesurgery Whereas prior telesurgical efforts have used dedicated lines for information transmission the public Internet offers a less expensive alternative It was the intent of this study to test the validity of using the da Vinci system in urologic telesurgery and to conduct telerobotic nephrectomies using the public Internet
