Rapid Reconstruction of Craniotomy Defects Based on Surgical Navigation / 中国医疗器械杂志

In neurosurgery, skull repair caused by surgical approach is one of the important research contents. In this paper, a rapid reconstruction method of the skull defect with optical navigation system is proposed. This method can automatically reconstruct the structure of skull defect with the intraoperative defect edge points and preoperative medical image data. The head model experiment was used to evaluate the effect of the method, the average error of the reconstruction of the defect in the right orbit was 0.424 mm, while the average error of the reconstruction of the defect in the posterior skull base was 0.377 mm. The experimental results show that the structure of the defect is consistent with the actual defect, and the reconstruction accuracy satisfies the clinical requirements in neurosurgery.

Automatic Robotic Puncture System for Accurate Liver Cancer Ablation Based on Optical Surgical Navigation / 中国医疗器械杂志

This paper designed an automatic robotic puncture system for accurate liver cancer ablation based on optical surgical navigation. The near-infrared optical surgical navigation system we constructed for liver ablation was applied to carry out surgical planning and simulation, the near-infrared cameras dynamically tracked the current position of puncture needle relative to the location of the patient's anatomy, then guided the surgery robot to position precisely in three-dimensional space and performed the surgery.
