In recent years, due to the increasing rate of elderly people in Japan, the needs to detect adults' diseases at the early stage becomes a high priority. In particular, an increased interest in detecting heart and cerebrovascular diseases at an early stage may allow clinicians to begin treatment sooner, when interventions are generally more effective and less expensive. Recently, the wave intensity...
This paper describes the development of a gait rehabilitation system with a locomotion interface (LI). The LI consists of two 2 DOF manipulators equipped with footpads. These can move the user's feet while his or her body remains stationary. The footpads follow the prerecorded motion of the feet of a healthy individual. For gait training, the user progresses iteratively through successively more advanced...
This article proposes one kind of ultrasonic imaging guided medical robot system with a six-joint arm. This system can detect the real-time space position of the ultrasonic probe by sensors in six joints of the arm. In the microwave ablation liver neoplasm treatment, when the six-joint arm holds the ultrasonic probe to scan on the body surface of a patient, the system's microcomputer can determinate...
Radio frequency ablation destroys a tumour by delivering radio frequency energy through a needle probe, minimally invasive surgery robot of five degrees freedom has been developed for assisting surgeons to place the probe accurately at the target. The minimally invasive surgery robot drives the ablator tool to track the tumor when the tumor moves in real time and precise orientate to the tumor. Therefore...
