“…Several major review publications cite the dVRK and study the literature in RMIS-related topics. Comprehensive reviews on the state of the art of RMIS and future research directions were presented in [52], [53], [125], [138], [140], [141], and [240]. Works like [137] and [139] reviewed the general aspects of autonomy in robotic surgery, while [81] and [217] focused on the human aspects in control and robotic interaction.…”

This article has been accepted for inclusion in a future issue of this journal. Content is final as presented, with the exception of pagination.R obotic-assisted surgery is now well established in clinical practice and has become the gold-standard clinical treatment option for several clinical indications. The field of robotic-assisted surgery is expected to grow substantially in the next decade, with a range of new robotic devices emerging to address unmet clinical needs across different specialties. A vibrant surgical robotics research community is pivotal for conceptualizing such new systems as well as for developing and training the engineers and scientists to translate them into practice. The da Vinci Research Kit (dVRK), an academic and industry collaborative effort to repurpose decommissioned da Vinci surgical systems [Intuitive Surgical Inc. (ISI), California, USA] as a research platform for surgical robotics research, has been a key initiative for addressing a barrier to entry for new research groups in surgical robotics. In this article, we present an extensive review of the publications that have been facilitated by the dVRK over the past decade. We classify research efforts into different categories and outline some of the major challenges and needs for the robotics community to maintain and build upon this initiative.
