Book Cognitive Supervision for Robot Assisted Minimally Invasive Laser Surgery

Download or read book Cognitive Supervision for Robot Assisted Minimally Invasive Laser Surgery written by Loris Fichera and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-04 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis lays the groundwork for the automatic supervision of the laser incision process, which aims to complement surgeons’ perception of the state of tissues and enhance their control over laser incisions. The research problem is formulated as the estimation of variables that are representative of the state of tissues during laser cutting. Prior research in this area leveraged numerical computation methods that bear a high computational cost and are not straightforward to use in a surgical setting. This book proposes a novel solution to this problem, using models inspired by the ability of experienced surgeons to perform precise and clean laser cutting. It shows that these new models, which were extracted from experimental data using statistical learning techniques, are straightforward to use in a surgical setup, allowing greater precision in laser-based surgical procedures.

Book Robotic Assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery

Download or read book Robotic Assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery written by Shawn Tsuda and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-31 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Minimally invasive surgery has impacted the outcomes of surgery more than any technology since the development of sterile technique. The hard science has demonstrated that decrease in wound complications and recovery time has created the biggest gap with open approaches to surgery. The total economic benefit may be unfathomable when looked at comprehensively. Integral to the rise of minimal access and therapeutic techniques in surgery has been the growth of technological improvements over time. Beginning with insufflators, videoscopy, and energy devices, that evolution has continued into the development of tele-surgical devices that feature full articulation of instruments, high-resolution 3-D optics, and computer assisted movement. This has come with controversy – as the dominant manufacturer of robotic assisted devices, Intuitive Surgical, and their generations of da Vinci surgical platforms, holds enough market share to spur cries of monopoly and financial excess. However, with over 3000 world-wide systems in use, and over 6000 peer-reviewed research articles, the impact of robotic surgery cannot be ignored. The current state of data suggests equivalency in most procedures with regard to traditional outcome measures, equal or somewhat elevated costs, with specific areas of superiority. The first section of this textbook, Surgical Robots, covers the history, economics, training, and medico-legal aspects of robotic surgery that will be of interest to students, residents, fellows, surgical staff, and administrators or public health specialists who seek to gain a comprehensive background on robotic surgery, or justification for purchasing a robotic system for their institution. Surgeons will also find this background valuable to their practice, to give context to their procedures so they can better counsel their patients, help with advocating for robotic platform purchases, and proactively prepare themselves for medico-legal issues. The chapter on legal issues will have specific instances of robotic surgery-related lawsuits and their outcomes, a first for robotic surgery texts. The second section of this textbook, Robotic Procedures, will contain a comprehensive catalogue of procedures that have been performed robotically in general surgery, gynecology, urology, plastic surgery, cardiothoracic, and otolaryngology. Each author will cover the existing literature, preoperative planning, room and patient setup, steps of the procedure, and postoperative care. Standardized room maps and port placement will help the student, resident, fellow, surgeon or OR Staff to quickly reference these before cases. Each chapter will also cover the specific equipment needs and expected complexity of the procedures, allowing administrators to better gauge how to prepare for, or ration, use or their robotic resources. The final section, Future of Robotics, will give the entire scope of audience a look into what exciting advancements in the field are on the horizon. This textbook is a complete resource for robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery, covering the history, current state, technical and clinical aspects, and future considerations that may be of interest to any who has a role, stake, or curiosity regarding robotic surgery.

Book Robotic Assisted Laser Bone Ablation for Orthopaedic Surgery

Download or read book Robotic Assisted Laser Bone Ablation for Orthopaedic Surgery written by Fadi Odeh Ahwal and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The needs for better quality patient care and improved surgical procedures drive the development of new surgical tools and techniques that can augment the human surgeon capabilities. Over the past decade or so there have been significant advances in the design and development of computer assisted image guided surgery systems that can potentially perform complex tasks with high dexterity, speed and flexibility. The aim of this research work is to investigate various aspects in the design of a new computer assisted surgical tool capable of sawing, drilling and sculpturing of bone. in support of image guided surgery that aims to reduce invasiveness, minimise blood loss and improve surgical outcome. The research of this thesis focuses on the design of an active positioning system (robotic end-effector) that uses a laser to cut bone to replace some of the currently available tools. This thesis starts by reviewing medical lasers and laser delivery systems, and discussing the effects of different lasers and lasers' parameters on tissue ablation time, rate and depth. It then defines criterion for the selection of the most appropriate laser and laser delivery system for bone cutting, drilling and sculpturing applications. Secondly, the thesis presents a unique design of a robotic laser end-effector. This end-effector is designed to provide accurate laser guidance for precise surgical performance (tissue ablation). This design is supported by an in-depth forward and inverse kinematic analysis to determine the end-effector workspace, resolution, positioning accuracy and manipulation flexibility. Thirdly and perhaps most importantly, the thesis presents two innovative laser feedback techniques, developed by the author, to determine the laser ablation depth and rate in real time during laser tissue interaction. These techniques are presented with complete analysis and supported by real time feedback examples. The techniques showed high measurement accuracy and reliability. Finally the thesis reviews the overall system performance supported by an error analysis model to determine the effects of different errors on the manipulation and positioning performance of the laser end-effector. It also presents some possible end-effector design modifications, alternative feedback techniques and suggestions for future work.

Book Optical Coherence Tomography guided Laser Cochleostomy

Download or read book Optical Coherence Tomography guided Laser Cochleostomy written by Zhang, Yaokun and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2015-01-19 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the high precision of laser, it remains challenging to control the laser-bone ablation without injuring the underlying critical structures. Providing an axial resolution on micrometre scale, OCT is a promising candidate for imaging microstructures beneath the bone surface and monitoring the ablation process. In this work, a bridge connecting these two technologies is established. A closed-loop control of laser-bone ablation under the monitoring with OCT has been successfully realised.
