A Neurosurgical Robotic System under Image-Guidance

Abstract

In this paper, a newly designed extrinsic-image-guided robotic system for frameless stereotactic neurosurgery in China is introduced. At first the procedure of stereotactic neurosurgery is summarized. Secondly the main structure of the system is addressed. Medical augmented reality is utilized for surgeon to choose best solution and to simulate the operation. Then the issues about telesurgery and safety are discussed. In the end, the system accuracy test and clinic experiment are presented.
