Effects of Latency on Telesurgery: An Experimental Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper is concerned with determining the feasibility of performing telesurgery over long communication links. It describes an experimental testbed for telesurgery that is currently available in our laboratory. The tesbed is capable of supporting both wired and satellite connections as well as simulated network environments. The feasibility of performing telesurgery over a satellite link with approximately 600 ms delay is shown through a number of dry and wet lab experiments. Quantative results of these experiments are also discussed.

An experimental feasibility study on robotic endonasal telesurgery.
BACKGROUND Novel robots have recently been developed specifically for endonasal surgery. They can deliver several thin, tentacle-like surgical instruments through a single nostril. Among the many potential advantages of such a robotic system is the prospect of telesurgery over long distances. OBJECTIVE To describe a phantom pituitary tumor removal done by a surgeon in Nashville, Tennessee, co...
متن کاملBeneficial Effects of Statins in Experimental Amnesia
The present study was undertaken to investigate the beneficial effects of widely-prescribed lipid lowering drugs, pitavastatin, atorvastatin and simvastatin 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme-A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors in cognitive dysfunctions of mice. Intra-cerebroventricular (ICV)-Streptozocin-(STZ)- and high-fat diet (HFD)-induced amnesia served as interoceptive memory models where a...
متن کاملUsing Simulators to Measure Communication Latency Effects in Robotic Telesurgery
Robotic surgical technology was originally developed by the US Army and DARPA as a tool to enable telesurgery at a distance. The Intuitive da Vinci system now provides a robotic surgical tool in a traditional operating room. But research continues into the extension of this capability to patients that are remote from the surgeon’s location. In this paper we describe the interim results of exper...
متن کاملEffects of Camphor on Sexual Behaviors in Male Rats
According to Iran’s folk medicine, camphor, a crystalline ketone obtained from essential oils of Cinnamomum camphora, has both sexual behavior attenuating and enhancing properties. This study examined the effects of camphor on sexual behavior in male rats. Twenty four sexually mature male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups receiving daily i.p. injections of oliv...
متن کاملThe effects of subchronic social and isolation stresses on learning and memory trend in male rats
Introduction: Psychological stresses influence brain functions such as learning and memory. Environmental factors like types and durations of stress affect brain responsiveness. This study investigated the effects of two subchronic social and isolation stresses on learning, memory, adrenal glands weight and corticosterone levels in the hippocampus and frontal cortex. Methods: Eighteen male ...
