Transcranial magnetic stimulation navigation positioning robot system and positioning method

Abstract

The invention discloses a transcranial magnetic stimulation navigation positioning robot system and positioning method, which comprises a host, an infrared locator, a patient positioning reference frame, a registration probe, a machine arm and coil clamping device and a control unit; the host is connected with the control unit and the infrared locator for reading the patient image data, calculating the treatment area, registration rectification and calculating the position of the coil; the infrared locator is connected with the registration probe and the positioning reference frame, for positioning the position of the reference frame and the registration probe in real time; the patient positioning reference frame is arranged on the head of the patient; the registration probe is used for completing the registration rectification at the point on the face of the patient; the machine arm and coil clamping device is connected to the control unit for placing the coil in a predetermined position and adjusting the coil position in real time according to the patient's position. According to the invention, the coil according to the operation plan before treatment can be accurately positioned, the position of the coil is adjusted in real time during the treatment process to avoid deviation of the treatment area caused by the movement of the patient and improve the treatment effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical device, in particular to a transcranial magnetic stimulation navigation and positioning robot system. In addition, the invention also relates to a transcranial magnetic stimulation navigation and positioning method. Background technique [0002] The modern modality of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) was performed by Bickford and Fremming in 1965. A TMS device consists of two main parts: a capacitor that stores charge as a source of energy, and an inductor that is located in the stimulation coil to deliver the energy. Capacitors can store high-current charges, and induction coils can release a large amount of charges in a very short time to generate a magnetic field. Magnetic lines of force can pass through the scalp, skull and brain tissue in a non-invasive manner with little resistance, and reverse in the brain induced current. Intracortical currents can activate large pyramidal neurons and cause microscop...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the existing transcranial magnetic stimulation navigation system has the following defects: it cannot accurately overlap the planned treatment area with the actual coil stimulation area, and cannot monitor the patient's position in real time and accurately adjust the position of the coil

This method still cannot accurately overlap the planned treatment area with the actual coil stimulation area, nor can it monitor the patient's position movement in real time and accurately adjust the coil position
