Robotic system for spinal and other surgeries

Charles Baur, Szymon Kostrzewski, Pascal Bérard

The present invention relates to a method, such as a surgical method for assisting a surgeon for placing screws in the spine using a robot attached to a passive structure. The present invention also related to a method, such as a surgical method for assist ...

Survey on Surgical Instrument Handle Design: Ergonomics and Acceptance

Hannes Bleuler, Roger Gassert, Laura Santos Carreras

Minimally invasive surgical approaches have revolutionized surgical care and considerably improved surgical outcomes. The instrumentation has changed significantly from open to laparoscopic and robotic surgery with various usability and ergonomics qualitie ...

Modern cataract surgery for radiation-induced cataracts in retinoblastoma

Alessia Pica

Background Surgery of radiation-induced cataracts in children with retinoblastoma (RB) is a challenge as early intervention is weighted against the need to delay surgery until complete tumour control is obtained. This study analyses the safety and function ...

Brain-Controlled Telepresence Robot by Motor-Disabled People

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Robert Leeb, Luca Tonin, Tom Edward Carlson

Abstract—In this paper we present the first results of users with disabilities in mentally controlling a telepresence robot, a rather complex task as the robot is continuously moving and the user must control it for a long period of time (over 6 minutes) t ...

Influence of force and torque feedback on operator performance in a VR-based suturing task

Hannes Bleuler, Roger Gassert, Laura Santos Carreras, Ricardo Daniel Rita Beira, Ali Sengül

The introduction of Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) has revolutionised surgical care, considerably improving the quality of many surgical procedures. Technological advances, particularly in robotic surgery systems, have reduced the complexity of such an a ...

VR simulation of interventional radiology and microsurgery

Fei Wang

Currently trainees typically learn surgery techniques directly on mocks, animals or cadavers. For safety, cost and ethics reasons, one cannot try all possible strategies to achieve efficient learning. Virtual Reality (VR) based surgery training systems int ...

Modélisation mécanique de fils pour la simulation chirurgicale

Lindo Robert Duratti

Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) represents one of the major progresses in surgery in the last decade. In general, it is based on the application of small body-cuts through which instruments are inserted into the patient's body allowing the surgeon to carr ...

Robust Method for Real-time, Continuous, 3D Detection of Obstructed Faces in Indoors Environments

Charles Baur, Sébastien Grange

We address the need for robust detection of obstructed human features in complex environments, with a focus on intelligent surgical UIs. In our setup, real-time detection is used to find features without the help of local (spatial or temporal) information. ...

Haptic interface design and control with application to surgery simulation

Ulrich Spälter

This thesis proposes a framework for haptic devices interacting with virtual environments. As application of the theoretical results a haptic device for the surgical training of hysteroscopy, a gynecologic intervention, is presented. Surgery simulators, wh ...

Multiresolution Spline-Based 3D/2D Registration of CT Volume and C-Arm Images for Computer-Assisted Surgery

Michaël Unser, Philippe Thévenaz

We propose an algorithm for aligning a preoperative computed tomography (CT) volume and intraoperative C-arm images, with applications in computer-assisted spinal surgery. Our three-dimensional (3D)/two-dimensional (2D) registration algorithm is based on s ...
