Combination design of drive mechanism considering delay of surgical robot.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Surgical robots have contributed greatly to the development of minimally invasive surgery. However, these robots suffer from issues such as the looseness of wires acting as the robot's drive mechanism, and high maintenance cost. The objective of this...

Robust 3D breast reconstruction based on monocular images and artificial intelligence for robotic guided oncological interventions.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Breast cancer is a global public health concern. For women with suspicious breast lesions, the current diagnosis requires a biopsy, which is usually guided by ultrasound (US). However, this process is challenging due to the low quality of the US imag...

NeBULA: A Standardized Protocol for the Benchmarking of Robotic-based Upper Limb Neurorehabilitation.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The use of robotic technologies in neurorehabilitation is growing, because they allow highly repeatable exercise protocols and patient-tailored therapies. However, there is a lack of objective methods for assessing these technologies, which makes it ...

sEMG-based Motion Recognition for Robotic Surgery Training - A Preliminary Study.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Robotic surgery represents a major breakthrough in the evolution of medical technology. Accordingly, efficient skill training and assessment methods should be developed to meet the surgeon's need of acquiring such robotic skills over a relatively sho...

Opportunities and challenges for robotic-assisted spine surgery: feasible indications for the MAZORâ„¢ X Stealth Edition.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The clinical use of new technologies has several potential benefits including improved accuracy, precision and efficiency. Robotic assistance during surgery is one such technology and it is making its way into neurosurgical operating rooms with incre...

Assessing Mode-Switching Strategies for Assistive Robotic Manipulators Using a Preliminary Version of the Novel Non-invasive Tongue-Computer Interface.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The inductive tongue-computer interface allows individuals with tetraplegia to control assistive devices. However, controlling assistive robotic arms often requires more than 14 different commands, which cannot always fit into a single control layout...

Real-Time-Capable Muscle Force Estimation for Monitoring Robotic Rehabilitation Therapy in the Intensive Care Unit.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
In this paper, a method is proposed to enable real-time monitoring of muscle forces during robotic rehabilitation therapy in the ICU. This method is solely based on sensor information provided by the rehabilitation robot. In current clinical practice...

Toward Autonomous Pulmonary Artery Catheterization: A Learning-based Robotic Navigation System.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Providing imaging during interventional treatments of cardiovascular diseases is challenging. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has gained popularity as it is radiation-free and returns high resolution of soft tissue. However, the clinician has limite...

An EEG-based brain-computer interface for real-time multi-task robotic control.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The Brain Computer Interface (BCI) is the communication between the human brain and the computer. Electroencephalogram (EEG) is one of the biomedical signals which can be obtained by attaching electrodes to the scalp. Some EEG related applications ca...

[Robot-assisted Thoracic Surgery for Mediastinal and Chest Wall Tumors:Atypical Surgical Approaches by the Tumor Localization].

Kyobu geka. The Japanese journal of thoracic surgery
Surgery for mediastinal and chest wall tumors requires various approaches, including open and thoracoscopic, depending on the size and localization of the tumor. While robotic surgery for anterior mediastinal tumors has become a standardized approach...
