Robust Path Planning via Learning from Demonstrations for Robotic Catheters in Deformable Environments
Zhen Li, Chiara Lambranzi, Di Wu +5
Objective: Navigation through tortuous and deformable vessels using catheters with limited steering capability underscores the need for reliable path planning. State-of-the-art pat…
Filasofia: A Framework for Streamlined Development of Real-Time Surgical Simulations
Vladimir Poliakov, Dzmitry Tsetserukou, Emmanuel Vander Poorten
Virtual reality simulation has become a popular approach for training and assessing medical students. It offers diverse scenarios, realistic visuals, and quantitative performance m…
Autonomous Navigation for Robot-assisted Intraluminal and Endovascular Procedures: A Systematic Review
Ameya Pore, Zhen Li, Diego Dall'Alba +7
Increased demand for less invasive procedures has accelerated the adoption of Intraluminal Procedures (IP) and Endovascular Interventions (EI) performed through body lumens and ves…
Robotic Endoscope Control via Autonomous Instrument Tracking
Caspar Gruijthuijsen, Luis C. Garcia-Peraza-Herrera, Gianni Borghesan +5
Many keyhole interventions rely on bi-manual handling of surgical instruments, forcing the main surgeon to rely on a second surgeon to act as a camera assistant. In addition to the…
Real-Time Segmentation of Non-Rigid Surgical Tools based on Deep Learning and Tracking
Luis C. García-Peraza-Herrera, Wenqi Li, Caspar Gruijthuijsen +7
Real-time tool segmentation is an essential component in computer-assisted surgical systems. We propose a novel real-time automatic method based on Fully Convolutional Networks (FC…
Deep Sequential Mosaicking of Fetoscopic Videos
Sophia Bano, Francisco Vasconcelos, Marcel Tella Amo +7
Twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome treatment requires fetoscopic laser photocoagulation of placental vascular anastomoses to regulate blood flow to both fetuses. Limited field-of-vi…
