<p>An apparatus and method are provided for the reduction of bone fractures. The apparatus includes an x-ray imaging system (11) which compares the fractured bone (106) with an unfractured bone, a robot controller which controls a robot hand (102) so as to move the fractured bone (106) in response to a command from a physician, and a safeguard system to detect abnormal tension in the limbs which can sound an alarm and cease robot motion if an error is detected. The method includes the comparison of x-ray images of unfractured and fractured bones and the movement of a robot hand (102) grasping a fractured bone (106) in a direction suitable for effective bone reduction.</p> |
