The iHandU system is a wearable device that quantitatively evaluates changes in wrist rigidity during Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery, allowing clinicians to find optimal stimulation settings that reduce patient symptoms. Robotic accuracy is als...
Operative neurosurgery (Hagerstown, Md.)
Jun 1, 2022
BACKGROUND: Robotic neurosurgery may improve the accuracy, speed, and availability of stereotactic procedures. We recently developed a computer vision and artificial intelligence-driven frameless stereotaxy for nonimmobilized patients, creating an op...
PURPOSE: Targeted treatment for brainstem lesions requires above all a precise histopathological and molecular diagnosis. In the current technological era, robot-assisted stereotactic biopsies represent an accurate and safe procedure for tissue diagn...
We report a case of multiple brain abscesses' puncture, employing the ROSA™ Brain surgical robot (Zimmer Biomet) and the O-arm® O2 Imaging System (Medtronic). A 51-year-old man was diagnosed with multiple supratentorial ring enhancing cystic lesions ...

Robot-assisted stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) is frequently employed to localize epileptogenic zones in patients with medically refractory epilepsy (MRE). Its methodology is well described in adults, but less so in children. Given the limited in...
OBJECTIVE: Conventional frame-based stereotaxy through a transfrontal approach (TFA) is the gold standard in brainstem biopsies. Because of the high surgical morbidity and limited impact on therapy, brainstem biopsies are controversial. The introduct...

Jan 1, 2022
INTRODUCTION: A 12-year long, prospective, single center study was conducted, comparing two frameless systems for brain biopsies: ROSA robotic-assisted stereotaxy and BrainLab Varioguide image-guided stereotaxy (Image Guided Surgery, IGS).
Understanding the basis of brain function requires knowledge of cortical operations over wide spatial scales and the quantitative analysis of brain activity in well-defined brain regions. Matching an anatomical atlas to brain functional data requires...
BACKGROUND: Fine operation has been an eternal topic in neurosurgery. There were many problems in functional neurosurgery field with high precision requirements. Our study aims to explore the operability, accuracy and postoperative effect of robot-as...

BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted stereotaxy (RAS) promises higher stereotactic accuracy (SA) and time efficiency (TE) than frame-based stereotaxy. However, both aspects are attributed to the problem of patient-to-robot registration.
