Problems solved by technology

[0004] Although the standard workflow for stereotaxic neurosurgery has been established for more than half a century, it remains challenging to perform due to its complex workflow and high demands on surgical accuracy
The average recording error of 2-3mm is almost intolerable
In general, there are no robotic systems for functional neurosurgery that integrate MR-safe actuation and MR-based tracking capable of performing stereotaxic manipulation within the MRI bore

Abstract

A neurosurgical robotic system for bilateral stereotaxy that integrates intraoperative MRI guidance is provided. The robotic system can be implemented in regular diagnostic MRI facilities. Navigationfor bilateral brain targets can be performed independently and simultaneously. The robotic system includes a plurality of manipulators, a needle guide (31), a needle (12) disposed within the needle guide (31); and a mounting base (39) with a plurality of screw holes for bone mounting.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the invention relate to medical robots, in particular surgical robots for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guided interventions. Background technique [0002] Stereotaxy is a technique that can use an external coordinate system as a reference to localize surgical targets. Its use in functional neurosurgery is primarily aimed at the treatment of various movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease (PD) and dystonia, psychiatric disorders and epilepsy. PD alone is the second most common disease of the nervous system after Alzheimer's disease and is expected to affect 8.7 million people worldwide by 2030. [0003] Deep brain stimulation (DBS), a common stereotaxic procedure, is a surgical therapy that reduces the motor symptoms of PD and dystonia. Two long (eg 300mm) thin ones The DBS needle is individually guided by the stereotaxic frame and inserted into the patient's skull through a burr hole. A stimulating electrode embedded in...
