About

Wenxuan Du is a researcher specializing in robotic-assisted vascular interventional surgery, with a focus on improving the precision and safety of catheter-based procedures for treating cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. His work addresses critical challenges in minimally invasive surgery, including the design of novel master manipulators for robot-assisted catheter systems, path planning algorithms for surgical training simulators, and control strategies to enhance tracking performance. Notably, Du developed a fuzzy-PID controller to improve the accuracy of robotic catheter systems, and conducted kinematic and elastic stress analyses of catheters and blood vessels to inform surgical simulation and haptic feedback. His most-cited paper, "Design and performance evaluation of a novel master manipulator for the robot-assist catheter system" (2016), has garnered 13 citations, reflecting its impact on advancing surgical robotics. Du’s contributions are particularly significant in the context of global health, as vascular diseases remain a leading cause of death. By integrating virtual reality and biomechanical modeling into training systems, his work aims to reduce procedural risks and improve outcomes, making him a key figure in the evolution of interventional surgical robotics.
