“…In order to reproduce human movements, regression techniques [24] and the modelling of robot dynamics [25] were also used. To increase the collaborative skills of the systems, some works implemented cognitive architectures that provided assistants with greater decisionmaking capacity and incorporated mechanisms to improve the behavior of the robot based on corrections made by medical personnel [26].…”

Endonasal surgery is a minimally invasive approach for the removal of pituitary tumors (sarcomas). In this type of procedure, the surgeon has to complete the surgical maneuvers for sarcoma resection with extreme precision, as there are many vital structures in this area. Therefore, the use of robots for this type of intervention could increase the success of the intervention by providing accurate movements. Research has focused on the development of teleoperated robots to handle a surgical instrument, including the use of virtual fixtures to delimit the working area. This paper aims to go a step further with a platform that includes a teleoperated robot and an autonomous robot dedicated to secondary tasks. In this way, the aim is to reduce the surgeon’s workload so that he can concentrate on his main task. Thus, the article focuses on the description and implementation of a navigator that coordinates both robots via a force/position control. Finally, both the navigation and control scheme were validated by in-vitro tests.

“…One approach is using information from previous interventions to determine the optimal zoom ratio [39]. Another to simulate a cognitive approach with long-term memory of interventions and surgical facts, procedural memory of learned behaviors and an episodic memory that stores user experiences; and a short-term memory where the surgical state and focus of attention are kept [45].…”

“…Using this tracking approach, the robotic arm cooperatively follows the US transducer during the intervention, where the gamma camera is positioned in a way to provide real-time 2D/2D gamma information and ultrasound images to guide the biopsy needle. While the idea of collaborative robotics has been introduced in the medical environment for telemanipulated systems [7] or laparoscopic camera placement [8], this paper introduces the combination of a light-weight robotic arm with camera-in-hand visual servoing in the context of a combination of functional and anatomical information.…”

Abstract. Sentinel lymph node (sLN) biopsy mostly requires an invasive surgical intervention to remove sLNs under radioguidance. We present an alternative method where live ultrasound is combined with live robotic gamma imaging to provide real-time anatomical and nuclear guidance of punch biopsies. The robotic arm holding a gamma camera is equipped with a system for inside-out tracking to directly retrieve the relative position of the US transducer with respect to itself. Based on this, the system cooperatively positions the gamma camera parallel to the US imaging plane selected by the physician for real-time multi-modal visualization. We validate the feasibility of this approach with a dedicated gelatine/agar biopsy phantom and show that lymph nodes separated by at least 10 mm can be distinguished.
