Modeling of Needle Insertion Forces for Robot-Assisted Percutaneous Therapy
نویسندگان
چکیده
Force information from needle insertions was measured and modeled for use in robot-assisted percutaneous therapies. Data was collected on bovine livers using the Johns Hopkins University Steady Hand Robot, and modeled in three parts: force due to capsule stiffness, friction, and cutting. Capsule stiffness is modeled by a nonlinear spring model, friction by a modified Karnopp model, and cutting by the remaining forces, which appear to be constant for a given tissue sample. During robot-assisted procedures, real-time force data can be compared to these models to control puncture of interior structures. Future work will combine imaging with force data to characterize tissue layers in specific applications, such as liver ablation and prostate brachytherapy.

Robotic needle insertion: effects of friction and needle geometry
Two experiments were performed to determine the effects of friction and needle geometry during robotic needle insertion into soft tissues. In Experiment I, friction forces along the instrument axis were characterized during needle insertion into bovine liver under CT fluoroscopic imaging. Because the relative velocity of the tissue and needle affect viscous and Coulomb friction, the needle inse...
متن کاملRobotic Guidance of Flexible Needle for Percutaneous Therapy
Flexible needle insertion for percutaneous therapies is formulated in this paper as a trajectory planning problem of a linear beam, supported by virtual springs. Using this simplified model, the forward and inverse kinematics of the needle is solved analytically, providing a way for simulation and path planning in real-time. Using the inverse kinematics, the required needle basis trajectory can...
متن کاملHand gesture guided robot-assisted surgery based on a direct augmented reality interface
Radiofrequency (RF) ablation is a good alternative to hepatic resection for treatment of liver tumors. However, accurate needle insertion requires precise hand-eye coordination and is also affected by the difficulty of RF needle navigation. This paper proposes a cooperative surgical robot system, guided by hand gestures and supported by an augmented reality (AR)-based surgical field, for robot-...

We present an automatic needle targeting method for fluoroscopyguided percutaneous access procedures. The approach is derived from the manual needle superimposition technique making it intuitive and familiar to surgeons and radiologists. The proposed algorithm is insensitive to image distortion and does not require any C-Arm calibration or initial pose estimation. Needle alignment is performed ...

Prediction of bodily motion due to respiration was investigated preparatory to implementation of active compensation for respiration in a robot-assisted system for percutaneous kidney surgery. Data for preliminary testing were recorded from the chest wall of a subject using an optical displacement sensor. The weighted-frequency Fourier linear combiner algorithm, an adaptive modeling algorithm...
