A method for a robotic surgical system includes displaying a graphical user interface on a display to a user, wherein the graphical user interface includes a plurality of reconfigurable display panels, receiving a user input at one or more user input devices, wherein the user input indicates a selection of at least one software application relating to the robotic surgical system, and rendering content from the at least one selected software application among the plurality of reconfigurable display panels.

A method of adjusting a staple parameter of a surgical stapling instrument is disclosed. The method includes determining, by a control circuit of the surgical stapling instrument, a first stroke length for a first staple driver of the surgical stapling instrument to drive a first row of staples of a circular stapling head assembly of the surgical stapling instrument; detecting, by the control circuit, a malformed staple in the first row of staples; adjusting, by the control circuit, the staple parameter, based on the detection of the malformed staple; and determining, by the control circuit, a second stroke length for a second staple driver of the surgical stapling instrument to drive a second row of staples of the circular stapling head assembly.

The present disclosure provides a positioning tool, a robotic arm system, and a surgical system. The positioning tool includes a body, a registration tip, and a trackable element. The body is used to connect with a terminal of a robotic arm at one end and connect to the registration tip at the other end. The registration tip is used to abut a predetermined position. The trackable element is to be disposed on the body, the registration tip or the robotic arm and is used to communicate with a navigation device. The positioning tool provided in present disclosure is an integrated registration tool, which is able to be used to accomplish registrations for both the robotic arm and the object without replacements of the registration tool during the entire registration process, thereby simplifing the operation and shortening the operation time.

A method includes receiving one or more signals indicative of a position of a distal-end assembly of a medical probe within an organ of a patient. Based on the received signals, an inner volume that is confined within the distal-end assembly is determined. An anatomical map of the organ is updated, to denote the inner volume of the distal-end assembly as belonging to an interior of the organ.
