Popis: Robot attached to Computed Tomography is recently a new modality in Radiology and Pain practices. Use of robotic assistance technique has significant benefits over conventional techniques {1} . It is very helpful in assessing depth of structures like vessels, nerves, tissues, bony structures. It is very help full in biopsy procedures ,in FNAC (2} ,in RF ablation procedures , in drainage of fluids ,in giving various types of nerve blocks for pain relief. A robot can hold ,orient and guide a needle with CT and fluoroscopic guidance . Physician's radiation exposure is also negligiable during CT fluoroscopy . The source of information is pub med .
