To investigate the feasibility of the remote control endovascular robotic system in interventional angiography. The endovascular robotic system Heifetz™ and the matched steerable catheter Mirage™ were used to cannulate all the target vessels in the vascular model and cerebral arteries originated from the aorta of Bama mini-pigs under fluoroscopic guidance. The technical success rate, cannulation time and exposure dose were all collected and compared with the result of using conventional techniques. All the target vessels were successfully cannulated.The average cannulation time for the steerable catheter into left subclavian artery, left common carotid artery, brachiocephalic artery, right common carotid artery and right subclavian artery in the vascular model was (21.3±2.8)s, (28.8±5.2)s, (17.7±2.6)s, (31.5±5.1)s and (24.2±3.7) s, respectively, while the average exposure dose was (9.3±1.2)mGy, (12.4±2.2)mGy, (7.4±1.2)mGy, (14.2±2.5)mGy and( 10.4±1.9)mGy, respectively. The endovascular robotic system completed the cerebral angiography in Bama mini-pigs successfully. The average cannulation time for left innominate artery, right innominate artery, right subclavian artery, common internal carotid trunk, left internal carotid artery and right internal carotid artery was (41.5±6.8)s, (29.1±3.7)s, (40.7±5.5)s, (40.1±5.8)s, (59.6±9.0)s and( 60.3±10.1)s, respectively, while the average exposure dose was (40.6±6.5)mGy, (36.0±5.2)mGy, (39.8±6.1)mGy, (43.9±6.7)mGy, (51.0±7.4)mGy and( 50.1±7.8)mGy, respectively. There was no significant difference between robotic and conventional group in success rate, cannulation time and exposure dose. The remote digital control endovascular robotic system could cannulate the target vessel in both vascular model and complete the cerebral angiography in Bama mini-pigs, which shows the feasibility of using this robotic system in endovascular intervention procedures under remote control.

Tele-robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy using a double-surgeon cockpit on a cadaver.

Surg Today

January 2025

Committee for Promotion of Remote Surgery Implementation, Japan Surgical Society, Tokyo, Japan.

We conducted this study to evaluate the efficacy of robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) on cadavers in the prone position, utilizing telesurgical support through the double-surgeon cockpit (double SC) of the novel Japanese-made surgical robot system, hinotori (Medicaroid, Kobe, Japan). The Cadaveric Anatomy and Surgical Training Laboratory (CAST Lab) at Hokkaido University and Kushiro City General Hospital (KCGH) are interconnected by a dedicated 1 Gbps internet line, spanning 300 km. An operation unit and double SC were installed at CAST Lab, whereas the double SC proctor was installed at KCGH.

Application of Robot-assisted Pancreaticobiliary Junction Resection in Benign Duodenal Tumors.

J Vis Exp

December 2024

Department of General Surgery (Hepatobiliary, Pancreatic and Splenic Surgery), The Sixth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University; Biomedical Innovation Center, The Sixth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University;

Robot-assisted pancreaticobiliary junction resection is a surgical technique employed to treat benign duodenal tumors. The procedure involves several key steps: making a longitudinal incision in the duodenum, excising the tumor at the pancreaticobiliary junction, inserting a biliary stent, connecting the biliary and duodenal mucosa, and suturing the duodenal incision during phase I. The robotic system enhances visibility, facilitates precise operations, minimizes duodenal traction injuries to the duodenum and surgical trauma, ensures accurate suture and fixation of bile duct stents, connects the bile duct and duodenal mucosa and reduces postoperative recovery time.

The precision and safety of robotic applications rely on accurate robot models. Bayesian Neural Networks (BNNs) offer the capability to acquire intricate models and provide insights into inherent uncertainties. While recent studies have successfully employed machine learning to predict the Forward Geometric Model (FGM) of a 6-DOF (degrees of freedom) parallel manipulator, traditional methods lack predictive uncertainty estimation.
