Check this out scalpel. Fresh off the press:

"In March, Google announced a partnership with Ethicon, owned by Johnson & Johnson, to develop a surgical robot. Wired reported that Ethicon will build it, while Google will focus on creating algorithms that analyze camera images to help surgeons improve. Titan Medical of Canada is in the second phase of developing the SPORT (Single Port Orifice Robotic Technology), a robot similar to the da Vinci. Expected to be market ready by mid-2017, it should come in well below competitors at a cost of approximately $600,000."
