ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an effective treatment for early-stage gastrointestinal cancers. However, traditional surgical instruments lack accuracy and force-sensing.METHODS:
A new type of continuum robot for ESD is designed. An accurate static model of the proposed continuum robot is established, considering cases where the robot bends into C-shapes and S-shapes. A force estimation method based on an accurate static model is proposed. Then, the accuracy of the static model and force estimation is verified through experiments. Finally, an ex-organ experiment is carried out.RESULTS:
The average position error of the proposed static model is 0.72 mm, accounting for 2.57% of the total robot length. The average error of force estimation is 19.53 mN. By gripping and cutting ex-porcine gastric mucosa, the robot's functionality is validated.CONCLUSION:
This paper contributes to precise control and safe interaction of continuum robots.Key words
