How does a surgeon’s brain buzz? An EEG coherence study on the interaction between humans and robot

摘要

IntroductionIn humans, both primary and non-primary motor areas are involved in the control of voluntary movements. However, the dynamics of functional coupling among different motor areas have not been fully clarified yet. There is to date no research looking to the functional dynamics in the brain of surgeons working in laparoscopy compared with those trained and working in robotic surgery.
