Occupancy Network-Guided Autonomous Robotic Partial Nephrectomy
Ethan Kilmer, Pit Henrich, Jiawei Ge +13
Autonomous soft-tissue cancer surgery has been limited to interventions on organ surfaces, because current systems cannot perceive and adapt to anatomy once it deforms or is cut. W…
A Compact Top-Loading Robot for Endovascular Interventions: Design, Control and Evaluation
Jonas Fischer, Lennart Karstensen, Franziska Mathis-Ullrich
Robot-assisted endovascular intervention can potentially reduce radiation exposure, improve surgeon ergonomics, enable telesurgery, support active assistance and autonomy, and enha…
Comparing Commercial Depth Sensor Accuracy for Medical Applications
Pit Henrich, Maximilian Weiherer, Franziska Hansen +2
Depth estimation has numerous medical and surgical applications. We benchmark four depth sensors on a porcine bone specimen, a porcine belly specimen, and a silicone kidney phantom…
Point Cloud Segmentation for Autonomous Clip Positioning in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy on a Phantom
Balázs Gyenes, Nikolai Franke, Paul Maria Scheikl +5
High-risk applications in robotics, such as robot-assisted surgery, present unique challenges. These systems must be both highly precise and interpretable in order to be deployed i…
A Position Statement on Endovascular Models and Effectiveness Metrics for Mechanical Thrombectomy Navigation, on behalf of the Stakeholder Taskforce for AI-assisted Robotic Thrombectomy (START)
Harry Robertshaw, Anna Barnes, Phil Blakelock +20
While we are making progress in overcoming infectious diseases and cancer; one of the major medical challenges of the mid-21st century will be the rising prevalence of stroke. Larg…
Tracking Tumors under Deformation from Partial Point Clouds using Occupancy Networks
Pit Henrich, Jiawei Liu, Jiawei Ge +5
To track tumors during surgery, information from preoperative CT scans is used to determine their position. However, as the surgeon operates, the tumor may be deformed which presen…
