چکیده

Figure 2: The robotic system developed for MR image-guided prostate biopsy and brachytherapy. The robot operates inside the bore during imaging, is registered to the scanner using a fiducial frame, and aligns the needle to targets selected in intraoperative MR imaging. The needle is inserted using a master device that lets the clinician stand beside the patient, view real-time MR images aligned with the needle axis, and control the needle depth while monitoring on the live images.

Automatic Targeting Method and Accuracy Study in Robot Assisted Needle Procedures

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 ...

High-field MRI-Compatible Needle Placement Robots for Prostate Interventions: Pneumatic and Piezoelectric Approaches

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be a very effective imaging modality for live guidance during surgical procedures. The rationale of MRI-guided surgery with robot-assistance is to perform surgical interventions utilizing “realtime” image feedback while minimize operation time and improves the surgical outcomes. However, challenges arise from electromagnetic compatibility within the high-fie...

An optical tracker based robot registration and servoing method for ultrasound guided percutaneous renal access

BACKGROUND Robot-assisted needle steering facilitates the percutaneous renal access (PRA) for their accuracy and consistency over manual operation. However, inaccurate image-robot correspondence and uncertainties in robot parameters make the needle track deviate from the intrarenal target. This paper aims to simplify the image-tracker-robot registration procedure and improves the accuracy of ne...
