System for Robotically Assisted Prostate Biopsy and Therapy with Intraoperative CT Guidance1

چکیده
Materials and Methods. The coach-mounted system consists of a seven-degrees-of-freedom, passive mounting arm; a remote-center-of-motion robot; and a motorized, radiolucent needle-insertion device to deliver 17–18-gauge implant and biopsy needles into the prostate with the transperineal route. The robot is registered to the image space with a stereotactic adapter. The surgeon plans and controls the intervention in the CT scanner room with a desktop computer that receives DICOM images from the CT scanner. The complete system fits in a carry-on suitcase, does not need calibration, and does not utilize vendor-specific features of the CT scanner.

System for robotically assisted prostate biopsy and therapy with intraoperative CT guidance.
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to assess the work-in-progress prototype of an image-guided, robotic system for accurate and consistent placement of transperineal needles into the prostate with intraoperative image guidance inside the gantry of a computed tomographic (CT) scanner. MATERIALS AND METHODS The coach-mounted system consists of a seven-degrees-of-freedom, pas...
متن کاملRobotic transrectal ultrasonography during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.
We evaluate the use of robotically manipulated transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) for real-time monitoring of prostate and periprostatic anatomy during robot-assisted prostatectomy (RAP). Ten patients with clinically organ-confined prostate cancer undergoing RAP underwent preoperative and real-time intraoperative biplanar TRUS evaluation using a robotically manipulated TRUS device (ViKY System; Endo...
متن کاملUtility of F-18 FDG PET/CT for Detection of Bone Marrow Metastases in Prostate Cancer Patients Treated with Radium-223
A 76-year-old man with symptomatic bone metastases from castrationresistant prostate cancer underwent Radium-223-dichloride (Ra-223) therapy. Before Ra-223 therapy, he had normal peripheral blood cell counts. Ra-223 therapy relieved his shoulder and low back pain. The elevation of the serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA), doubling every month during Ra-223 therapy, suggested a PSA flare or rel...
متن کامل3D motion tracking of pulmonary lesions using CT fluoroscopy images for robotically assisted lung biopsy
We are developing a prototype system for robotically assisted lung biopsy. For directing the robot in biopsy needle placement, we propose a non-invasive algorithm to track the 3D position of the target lesion using 2D CT fluoroscopy image sequences. A small region of the CT fluoroscopy image is registered to a corresponding region in a pre-operative CT volume to infer the position of the target...
متن کاملRobotically Assisted Percutaneous Local Therapy and Biopsy ( Preliminary
We present the concept and prototype of an image-guided robotic system for accurate and consistent placement of percutaneous needles in soft tissue targets under CT-guidance. The system is a promising embodiment of the Surgical CAD/CAM paradigm and as such, easily adaptable to other image guidance modalities, like X-ray fluoroscopy. We also report the first results of pre-clinical experiments o...
