Abstract

An energy source is coupled to a probe mounted on a robotic arm, and a processor configured with instructions to release energy to resect tissue in coordination with movement of the robotic arm and probe. The tissue can be resected in accordance with a defined tissue resection volume that can be determined based on images of the patient. The probe can be moved to a plurality of positions with movement of a distal end of the robotic arm and tissue resected in accordance with the treatment plan. The distal end of the robotic arm can be configured to move to a plurality of locations and orientations to provide an appropriate position and orientation of the probe tip and energy source. The processor can be configured with instructions to pivot the probe at a location to decrease tissue movement near the pivot such as an internal location of the patient.
