Evaluation of a pneumatic surgical robot with dynamic force feedback.

Journal of robotic surgery Sep 25, 2018
Robot-assisted surgery is limited by the lack of haptic feedback and increased operating times. Force scaling adjusts feedback transmitted to the operator through the use of scaling factors. Herein, we investigate how force scaling affects forces exe...

Robust and semantic needle detection in 3D ultrasound using orthogonal-plane convolutional neural networks.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery May 31, 2018
PURPOSE: During needle interventions, successful automated detection of the needle immediately after insertion is necessary to allow the physician identify and correct any misalignment of the needle and the target at early stages, which reduces needl...

Automatic Robotic Steering of Flexible Needles from 3D Ultrasound Images in Phantoms and Ex Vivo Biological Tissue.

Annals of biomedical engineering May 29, 2018
Robotic control of needle bending aims at increasing the precision of percutaneous procedures. Ultrasound feedback is preferable for its clinical ease of use, cost and compactness but raises needle detection issues. In this paper, we propose a comple...

Robust path planning for flexible needle insertion using Markov decision processes.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery May 11, 2018
PURPOSE: Flexible needle has the potential to accurately navigate to a treatment region in the least invasive manner. We propose a new planning method using Markov decision processes (MDPs) for flexible needle navigation that can perform robust path ...
