Ten years of paediatric robotic surgery: Lessons learned.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Costs and a low total number of cases may be obstacles to the successful implementation of a paediatric robotic surgery programme. The aim of this study was to evaluate a decade of paediatric robotic surgery and to reflect upon factors fo...

Visual servoing of continuum robots: Methods, challenges, and prospects.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Recent advancements in continuum robotics have accentuated developing efficient and stable controllers to handle shape deformation and compliance. The control of continuum robots (CRs) using physical sensors attached to the robot, particu...

Comparison of robot-assisted and conventional laparoscopy for colorectal surgery for endometriosis: A prospective cohort study.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Our objective was to evaluate surgical outcomes of robotic compared to conventional laparoscopy for colorectal surgery for endometriosis.

Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy training: Description of a canine cadaveric model.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Assess the relevance of a canine model in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) training.

Trajectory optimisation with musculoskeletal integration features for fracture reduction orthopaedic robot.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Human body is an integrated system of bones and muscles. To date, there are insufficient studies on the effect of muscles on the trajectory planning of orthopaedic robot. To this end, based on a Stewart-Gough platform (6-UPU) fracture red...

Robotic assistance is technically superior to conventional laparoscopy in hemicolectomies.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
OBJECTIVE: An objective assessment of robotic assistance in hemicolectomies.

Application of deterministic networking for reducing network delay in urological telesurgery: A retrospective study.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Deterministic Networking (DetNet) is a new technology that can effectively control network delay and may promote the revolution of telemedicine. This study verified the feasibility and advantage of deterministic networking in telesurgery.

Does single-site robotic surgery makes sense for gallbladder surgery?

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Cholecystectomy is one of the most performed surgeries. Several techniques were created, generating less pain, better aesthetic results and faster return to activities. Robotic surgery through a single portal combined the advantages of si...

Constraint of musculoskeletal tissue and path planning of robot-assisted fracture reduction with collision avoidance.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: For the robot-assisted fracture reduction, due to the complex fracture musculoskeletal environment, it is necessary to consider the influence of soft tissue traction on preoperative reduction path planning.

Analysis of tendon tension and hysteresis by tendon twisting and development of anti-twist tendon mechanism of robotic surgical instruments.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Control of the joints of robotic surgical instruments is difficult owing to hysteresis, and tendon twisting due to axial rotation of surgical tools also causes hysteresis. Therefore, a new mechanism is needed to prevent tendon twisting.
