Intestinal tract diagnosis and treatment robot system

Abstract

The invention relates to an intestinal tract diagnosis and treatment robot system used for carrying out diagnosis and treatment operations in intestinal tracts of animals or human bodies. The system comprises an external control center part and a diagnosis and treatment part entering the intestinal tracts, wherein the external control center part comprises a computer and a wireless receiving-transmitting device; the diagnosis and treatment part comprises a camera, an organism, a plurality of stimulating electrodes, a release control device and a shell. In the system, a finless eel or a finless eel improved through a biotechnology is used as the organism; images in the intestinal tracts are acquired through the camera device; the external control center receives data and remotely controls the diagnosis and treatment part; and the release control device receives stimulating signals and medicine release signals, stimulates the organism through an appointed stimulating electrode so as to control the organism to advance, retreat and stop and release medicine at affected parts of the intestinal tracts, therefore, the purposes of deeply entering the intestinal tracts to release medicine at fixed points and actively returning in vitro after releasing medicine are achieved. The system enters the intestinal tracts to release medicine at fixed points in an active drive mode, has higher energy efficiency and controls the organism to move by using non-invasive body surface stimulation.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to an intestinal tract diagnosis and treatment robot system, which is used for performing diagnosis and treatment operations on the intestines of animals or human bodies, and belongs to the technical field of biomedical engineering. Background technique: [0002] Due to the traditional insertion type intestinal endoscope, during the insertion operation inspection process, the patient will have serious discomfort and even trauma, and it is difficult to enter the deep part of the intestinal tract. In recent years, non-invasive and minimally invasive has become the development direction of the diagnosis and treatment of digestive tract diseases, among which diagnosis and treatment capsules and intestinal robots are international research hotspots. [0003] In the field of diagnosis and treatment capsules, the diagnosis and treatment capsule developed by Israel’s Iddan et al. to collect intestinal images is more famous. Israel’s Give...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Studies have shown that the intestinal robot drive technology based on "bionic principle + electromechanical system" still has many problems before its practical application. Various drive mechanisms, such as SMA drive, electromagnetic drive, piezoelectric drive, etc., all have the problem of large energy consumption. , all need a cable for energy supply. Although it overcomes the trauma of the traditional insertion operation, due to the restraint of the energy supply cable, the overall structure is still similar to the current insertion digestive endoscope. There are still some limitations in the depth of the channel

More importantly, the heat dissipation problem of the driving mechanism of the actively driven intestinal diagnosis and treatment robot is difficult to solve. For example, the driving process of the shape memory alloy is accompanied by repeated heat generation and heat dissipation processes, and a large amount of heat is generated, which leads to hidden dangers of biological safety.

How to overcome the energy bottleneck problem in active driving and obtain an intestinal robot that is independent, has high energy efficiency, and can enter the deep intestine, there is still no good solution.
