The workshop will have to provide a balanced review of status and prospects of applying robotic (and AI) based technologies in healthcare. AI and robotics are part of a larger enterprise that concerns digitalization of healthcare that is going on for a while (e.g. eHealth). Digitalisation will necessarily interconnect with both AI and robotic technologies. Ethical and legal considerations concerning only AI and robotics will also be considered.
