Abstract

PURPOSE: The use of robotics is emerging for performing interventional radiology procedures. Robots in interventional radiology are typically controlled using button presses and joystick movements. This study identified how different human-robot interfaces affect endovascular surgical performance using interventional radiology simulations.
