A robotized handheld smart tool for orthopedic surgery.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Handheld surgical robots offer functionalities, such as active guidance, tremor suppression and force reflection, for surgeons to enhance their skill in manipulating surgical tools during medical intervention. In orthopedic surgery, the r...

Framed and non-framed robotics in neurosurgery: A 10-year single-center experience.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Safety, efficacy and efficiency of neurosurgical robots are defined by their design (i.e., framed and non-framed) and procedural workflow (PW) (from image to surgery). The present study describes the quality indicators of three different ...

A hybrid learning-based hysteresis compensation strategy for surgical robots.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: The hysteretic forces arising from the electric cables that externally run along the robotic joints are the main disturbance to the precise parameter estimation of gravity compensation model, for the Master Tool Manipulator (MTM) of the d...

Design and implementation of a hand-held robot-assisted minimally invasive surgical device with enhanced intuitive manipulability and stable grip force.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: The conventional hand-held minimally invasive surgical devices commonly suffer from non-intuitive manipulability and restricted flexibility for operation.

Integrating robot-assisted ultrasound tracking and 3D needle shape prediction for real-time tracking of the needle tip in needle steering procedures.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Needle insertions have been used in several minimally invasive procedures for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Real-time position of the needle tip is an important information in needle steering systems.

Robotic single-site versus multiport radical hysterectomy in early stage cervical cancer: An analysis of 62 cases from a single institution.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to compare the surgical outcomes and cost of robotic single-site radical hysterectomy (RSSRH) versus robotic multiport radical hysterectomy (RMPRH) with pelvic lymph node dissection in early stage cervical cancer.

Accuracy and deviation analysis of robot-assisted spinal implants: A retrospective overview of 105 cases and preliminary comparison to open freehand surgery in lumbar spondylolisthesis.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Whether the accuracy of robot-assisted spinal screw placement is significantly higher than that of freehand and the source of robotic deviation remain unclear.

Development of a transperineal prostate biopsy robot guided by MRI-TRUS image.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: In the transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided transperineal prostate biopsy, doctors determine the biopsy target by observing the prostate region in TRUS images. However, ultrasound images with low imaging quality make doctors easy to be in...

Robot-assisted versus open radical cystectomy: A cohort study on perioperative outcomes accounting for stage selection bias and surgical experience.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Most comparisons of robot-assisted (RARC) versus open radical cystectomy (ORC) for urothelial carcinoma do not factor the inherent stage selection bias or surgical experience.

Upper urinary tract surgery and radical prostatectomy with Senhance robotic system: Single center experience-First 100 cases.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: The Senhance robotic surgery system is a novel robotic platform used in several European and World centres. We present our experience in urologic surgery using this platform.
