Abstract

PURPOSE: To evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of a robotic system to integrate and map computed tomography (CT) and robotic coordinates, followed by automatic trajectory execution by a robotic arm. The system was hypothesized to achieve a targeting error of <5 mm without significant influence from variations in angulation or depth.
