Tele-Operated Echography and Remote Guidance for Performing Tele-Echography on Geographically Isolated Patients
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the performance of three tele-echography systems for routine use in isolated medical centers. METHODS Three systems were used for deep (abdomen, pelvis, fetal) and superficial (muscle, thyroid, carotid artery) examinations: (a) a robotic arm (RA) holding an echographic probe; (b) an echograph with a motorized probe (MP); and (c) remote guidance (RG) where the patient sit...
متن کاملImage processing in echography and MRI
FACULTY OF ENGINEERING, SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS SCHOOL OF ELECTRONICS AND COMPUTER SCIENCE Doctor of Philosophy by Bernardo S. Carmo This work deals with image processing for three medical imaging applications: speckle detection in 3D ultrasound, left ventricle detection in cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and flow feature visualisation in velocity MRI. For speckle detection, a learning...
متن کاملExperiments with the TER Tele-echography Robot
This paper presents a master-slave system applied to the remote diagnosis from echographic data. The motion of the master manipulator is remotely controlled by a physician and reproduced by a slave robot carrying the echographic probe. The contact force between the probe and the patient is fed back to operator allowing him to have a haptic virtual environment. The innovation of this haptic cont...
متن کاملTER: A System for Robotic Tele-echography
The quality of ultrasound based diagnosis highly depends on the operator’s skills. Some healthcare centres may not have the required medical experts on hand when needed and therefore may not benefit from highly specialized ultrasound examinations. The aim of this project is to provide a reliable solution in order to perform expert ultrasound examinations in distant geographical areas and for th...
متن کاملA new robot architecture for tele-echography
This paper presents a slave robot carrying an ultrasound probe for remote echographic examination. This robot is integrated in a master-slave system called robotic tele-echography (TER). The system allows an expert operator to perform a remote diagnosis from echographic data he acquires on a patient located in a distant place. The originality of this robot lies in its architecture: the cable-dr...
