Visualization analysis of medical robot research in the past 20 years

Published: 28 June 2024 Publication History

Abstract

Medical robot research is one of the important research directions in the field of robotics. By searching the Web of Science core collection database, the relevant literature on medical robot research from January 1,2002 to December 31,2022 was retrieved and used as a research sample. Using CiteSpace software combined with VOSviewer and Pajek software for visual analysis, identify and analyze its research status, research hotspots and evolution trends, and predict its development direction. Finally, we found that the research institutions cooperate more, but there are regional constraints. The research hotspots mainly focus on the research of surgical robot, mechanical design and system development, and the deep integration of robot and medical treatment. In recent years, the keywords of related literature in this field mainly include Artificial intelligence, human-computer interaction, software robots, care and so on. Research on telemedicine, AI assistance, and flexible wearables are some of the future development directions in this field.
