　　Robots May Allow Surgery in Space

　　Small robots designed by University of Nebraska researchers may allow doctors on Earth to help perform surgery on patients in space.

　　The tiny，wheeled robots， (51)are about 3 inches tall and as wide as a lipstick case，can be slipped into small incisions(切口)and computer-controlled by surgeons in different locations. Some robots are equipped (52)cameras and lights and can send images back to surgeons and others have surgical tools attached that can be (53)remotely.

　　We think this is going to (54)open surgery，Dr Dmitry Oleynikov said at a news conference. Oleynikov is a (55)in computer-assisted surgery at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha.

This is particularly (64)to those patients who have been debilitated(使虚弱)by long illness.

　　Eventually，Oleynikov said，the tiny robots may enable surgeons to work without ever (65)their hands in patients bodies. Thats the goal, Oleynikov said. Its getting easier and easier. We can do even more with these devices.
