Robotics is advancing with each day, and over the years we saw some amazing robots, but today we have the first robot to have performed surgery on actual human body. Robots don't play instruments and carry heavy things anymore, they perform real surgeries at Canada's McGill University Health Centre. So far, there are only two robots that can perform surgeries, DaVinci, a surgical robot, and anaesthetic robot McSleepy.

Of course, surgery isn't performed entirely by the robots, DaVinci, is controlled remotely by real surgeons. Throughout surgery, a team of surgeons had their eyes on a live 3D HD quality video so that they could direct DaVinci through the procedure.

The reason why robots are performing operations instead of real surgeons is that robots can provide higher precision and accuracy than humans when performing complex surgeries. Though this will be highly argued among the experienced. As for DaVinci and McSleepy, those two robots have managed to remove part of a prostate gland from a patient without any patient compromise.

It looks inevitable that we'll be seeing more robots with latest technology take part in medicine along side doctors in the near future, but that doesn't mean that they'll replace real doctors anytime soon.
