Key Points

Robotic assistance in medicine has been a revolution.
The use of robots has naturally extended to interventional radiology for percutaneous and endovascular interventions.
The guidance is mainly performed with a remote (computer or joystick) allowing the operator and his team not to be exposed to X-rays.
