Computer Vision and Deep Learning for Environment-Adaptive Control of Robotic Lower-Limb Exoskeletons.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Robotic exoskeletons require human control and decision making to switch between different locomotion modes, which can be inconvenient and cognitively demanding. To support the development of automated locomotion mode recognition systems (i.e., intel...

A Virtual Scanning Framework for Robotic Spinal Sonography with Automatic Real-time Recognition of Standard Views.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Ultrasound (US) imaging is widely used to assist in the diagnosis and intervention of the spine, but the manual scanning process would bring heavy physical and cognitive burdens on the sonographers. Robotic US acquisitions can provide an alternative ...

Localization of Point-of-Interest Positions on Cardiac Surface for Robotic-Assisted Beating Heart Surgery.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
One of the critical components of robotic-assisted beating heart surgery is precise localization of a point-of-interest (POI) position on cardiac surface, which needs to be tracked by the robotic instruments. This is challenging as the incoming senso...

Spatial Detection of the Shafts of Fractured Femur for Image-Guided Robotic Surgery.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Femur fractures due to traumatic forces often require surgical intervention. Such surgeries require alignment of the femur in the presence of large muscular forces up to 500 N. Currently, orthopedic surgeons perform this alignment manually before fix...

A Combined Deep Learning and Anatomical Inch Measurement Approach to Robotic Acupuncture Points Positioning.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Acupuncture therapy is one of the cornerstones in traditional Chinese medicine. It requires rich experiences from Chinese medicine practitioner. However, repeatability among different practitioners are low. Meanwhile, there is a large variety of skin...

Robotic Cytology using Extra-Fine Needles : -Proposal of Puncture Control Strategy for Increasing Collection Amount.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Fine needle aspiration cytology requires accurate needle insertion into a tumor and sufficient amount collection of samples, which highly depends on the skill of the physician. The advantage of the diagnosis is to minimize the tissue damage with the ...
