In pedicle screw insertion surgeries, the most dangerous part is the screw path drilling process. In current surgeries, surgeons guarantee not to drill through the vertebra by their haptic and auditory sense and experience. In this paper, an intraoperative real-time control method for a Robotic Spinal Surgical System (RSSS) with state sensing is proposed. A drilling state recognition with Audio-Torque...
Bone drilling is an important and difficult process in orthopedic surgeries. To detect the drilling state of a Robotic Orthopedic Surgery System (ROSS) in real-time, a state recognition method based on audio signals, the Acoustic Emission (AE) signals generated in drilling process, is proposed in this paper. By an analysis via power spectral density of the AE signals, an appropriate frequency band...
Screw path drilling is an important process among many orthopedic surgeries. To guarantee the safety and correctness of this process, a model-based drilling state recognition method is proposed in this paper. The thrust force in the drilling process is modeled based on an accurate 3D bone model restructured by means of Micro-CT images. In theoretical modeling of the thrust force, the resistance and...
Spinal orthopedic surgery is one of the typical high-risk surgeries. During the surgery, bone screws need to be inserted into the narrower vertebral pedicles and any failures in the screw-path-drilling process will directly hurt the important nerves and vessels of the patient. In this paper, a robotic spinal surgical system (RSSS) for assisting pedicle screw insertion surgery is proposed. The novel...
In this paper a medical robot based on a 3-RPS parallel platform is presented for providing correct screw path in transpedicular fixation surgery. For improving the accuracy of the robot, a calibration approach for 3-RPS with CMM (Coordinate Measuring Instrument) data is developed. Sensitivity analysis of the error source had been done with Monte-Carlo techniques. The results show that the length...
In pedicle screw insertion surgeries, the drilling process of the screw path is very critical to decide the success of the surgery, as the hole is drilled on a very narrow area on the vertebral pedicle. In current manual surgeries, surgeons perform operation with monitoring the medical images in navigation system and sensing operation force. To simulate these abilities, in this paper, a bone-drilling...
A Pedicle Screws Surgical Robot (PSSR) can reduce the risk of spinal surgery and improve surgical precision, which plays an important role in promoting the medical care level of spinal surgery. A new type of PSSR is proposed in this paper, and the mechanical structure and its working principle are also introduced. The kinematics model of the robot is derived from D-H notation in order to obtain the...
In this paper, a novel type of parallel robot with four degree of freedoms is presented and investigated, which expends the family of few DOFs parallel robots. The parallel robot has two rotation and two translation degree of freedoms. The aspects about its configuration and kinematics analysis are discussed firstly, and a comparison of its singularity, workspace and dexterity are discussed in details...
In this paper a class of mobile parallel robots with the structural configuration of PPUU (Prismatic-Prismatic- Universal-Universal) is investigated in detail. Firstly a singularity analysis corresponding to different configured cases of the revolute axes of the robot's U-joint based on the screw theory is developed and a brief comparison of the four cases is carried out. Of all four configuration...
A novel 6-DOF parallel manipulator composed of two limited-DOF manipulators is proposed in this paper, the degree of freedom (DOF) of this manipulator is analyzed and the position kinematic modeling is established. The Jacobian matrix is derived by vector loops equations. The workspace is determined considering the interference check by the numerical method. Furthermore, the performance of the mechanism...
