چکیده

Minimally invasive robotic surgery (MIRS) entails total absence of haptic feedback due to the spatial separation of patient and surgeon. In conventional surgery, however, palpation to detect superficial arteries by a slight pulsation is an important, commonly applied, and security-relevant procedure. Therefore, an ultrasound based unidirectional sensor for MIRS was developed feeding back kinesthetic impulses to the surgeon-sided haptic input device. Keywords— Minimally Invasive Robotic Surgery, Telesurgery, Ultrasound, Tactility, Modality Substitution.

Modeling of Tactile Detection of an Artery in a Soft Tissue by Finite Element Analysis

Nowadays, one of the main problems encountered in minimally invasive surgery and telesurgery is the detection of arteries in tissue. In this study, for the first time, tactile detection of an artery in tissue and distinguishing it from the tumor has been modeled by finite element method. In this modeling, three 2D models of tissue have been created: tissue, tissue including a tumor, and tissue ...

Investigating Effective Parameters in Tactile Determination of Artery included in Soft Tissue by FEM

One of the newest ways of surgery is known as Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS), which in spite of its benefits, because of surgeon's tactile sensing omission, causes some problems with detection of arteries and their exact positions in tissue during a surgery. In this study, tactile detection of an artery in tissue has been modeled by finite element method. In this modeling, three 2D models of ...

A New Approach to Establish Tactility in Minimally Invasive Robotic Surgery Development, Design, and First Evaluation of a Haptic-Tactile Feedback System for Improved Localization of Arteries During Surgery such as Closed-Chest Revascularization

In conventional minimally invasive robotic surgery (MIRS) the physician is no longer in direct mechanical contact with the patient and the surgical instruments. The establishment of kinesthetic impressions shows promising results technically but tactile feedback is still a problem. Various attempts with full remote perception of tactile impressions did not prevail for a number of reasons. Above...

Design and Construction of a New Capacitive Tactile Sensor for Measuring Normal Tactile Force

This paper presents the design, construction and testing of a new capacitive tactile sensor for measurement of normal tactile force. The operation of proposed sensor has been investigated in ASTABLE and MONOSTABLE circuits. According to the results of these circuits the deviation of ASTABLE circuit results is less than MONOSTABLE circuit results. In addition, the results obtained from ASTABLE c...

Wrist-enhanced instrumentation: moving toward totally endoscopic coronary artery bypass grafting.

BACKGROUND With the introduction of the da Vinci robotic surgical system (Intuitive Surgical, Mountain View, CA) into minimally invasive cardiac operations the outlook for performing coronary artery bypass operations "closed chest" became a reality. METHODS Between May 1999 and December 1999 this new wrist-enhanced instrumentation was used in 61 patients. Six patients suffering from single-ve...
