title: Robotic surgery is ready for prime time in India: For the motion.
abstract: Robotic surgery with its bundled advantages is still in its burgeoning phase, the best of which is yet to come. The unrivalled suturing ease and motion scaling features, transforming into greater precision, has led to its widespread application in different surgical ramifications. These, coupled with the aforementioned advantages, has led to an increasing number of procedures being performed and that too with improved patient outcomes. It seems that the progressing India is readily accepting this robotic surgical innovation, the use of which is on a continuous rise, with the number of robotic platforms coming up in increasing numbers in many tertiary care Indian centres and a corresponding increase in demand of the same by the patients as well; thereby aptly fulfilling the economics of 'demand and supply'.
