A marker-based contactless catheter-sensing method to detect surgeons' operations for catheterization training systems.

Biomedical microdevices
It is challenging to position a catheter or a guidewire within a patient's complicated and delicate vascular structure due to the lack of intuitive visual feedback by only manipulating the proximal part of the surgical instruments. Training is theref...

Evolution of a Novel Robotic Training Curriculum in a Complex General Surgical Oncology Fellowship.

Annals of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: Robotic surgery is increasingly being used for complex oncologic operations, although currently there is no standardized curriculum in place for surgical oncologists. We describe the evolution of a proficiency-based robotic training progr...

Robot Assisted Surgical Ward Rounds: Virtually Always There.

Journal of innovation in health informatics
 While an explosion in technological sophistication has revolutionized surgery within the operating theatre, delivery of surgical ward-based care has seen little innovation.  Use of telepresence allowing off-site clinicians communicate with patients ...

Feasibility of an AI-Based Measure of the Hand Motions of Expert and Novice Surgeons.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
This study investigated whether parameters derived from hand motions of expert and novice surgeons accurately and objectively reflect laparoscopic surgical skill levels using an artificial intelligence system consisting of a three-layer chaos neural ...

A cooperation of catheters and guidewires-based novel remote-controlled vascular interventional robot.

Biomedical microdevices
Remote-controlled vascular interventional robots (RVIRs) are being developed to increase the overall accuracy of surgical operations and reduce the occupational risks of intervening physicians, such as radiation exposure and chronic neck/back pain. S...

Performance metrics for guidance active constraints in surgical robotics.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
Active constraint (AC)/virtual fixture (VF) is among the most popular approaches towards the shared execution of subtasks by the surgeon and robotic systems. As more possibilities appear for the implementation of ACs in surgical scenarios, the need t...
