MR SAM: Magnetic Resonance Compatible Surgical Manipulator
This paper discusses the optimal design of MR SAM a robot for tool placement during magnetic resonance image-guided surgery. The robot is required to operate in a magnetic environment, therefore a unique set of constraints was placed on the design. The prime constraint was that the final design must be MR safe. This requires the actuators to be placed away from the centre of the imaging area, w...
متن کاملAn MR compatible fluorescence tomography system
Introduction : Multi-modality imaging is becoming a trend in developing new generation in vivo imaging techniques for diagnosis [1]. MRI is a high resolution imaging modality, while fluorescence tomography (FT) is becoming an important molecular imaging tool despite of its low spatial resolution [2]. In FT, there are two parameters that can be spatially resolved, namely fluorophore concentratio...

متن کاملMR Compatible Surgical Assist Robot: System Integration and Preliminary Feasibility Study
A magnetic resonance (MR) compatible surgical assist robot system under preclinical evaluation is described. It is designed to coexist, and cooperate, with a surgeon, and to position and direct an axisymmetric tool, such as a laser pointer or a biopsy catheter. The main mechanical body is located above the head of the surgeon, and two rigid arms extend to the workspace. This configuration contr...
متن کاملFeasibility of a 2 generation MR-compatible manipulator for transrectal prostate biopsy guidance
Objectives To assess the feasibility of a 2 generation MRcompatible, remote-controlled manipulator (RCM) as an aid to perform MR-guided transrectal prostate biopsy in males with suspicion of prostate cancer (PCa). Methods This prospective phase I study was approved by the local ethical committee and written informed consent was obtained from each patient. Twenty patients with ≥1 cancer suspicio...
