Nonefficacy of routine removal of CSF during neurodiagnostic procedures.
The charts of 750 patients were reviewed to determine the value of routinely removing cerebrospinal fluid at the time of myelography and cisternography for chemical and cytologic examination. In most patients cerebrospinal fluid findings were normal. In the few abnormal studies, the findings were often uninformative, superfluous, or insufficient for appropriate diagnosis. In no instance did rou...

متن کاملSensor-based force measurement during FESS for robot assisted surgery
The main disadvantage of conventional functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) for the surgeon is the restriction to one hand for manipulation while the other hand is holding the endoscope. In our project we develop an automatic anticipating robot assisted endoscope guidance during FESS. The robot guidance will be realized by a multisensor system which includes tactile control. The objective ...
