Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical devices, specifically to a neurosurgical interventional robot. Background Technology

[0002] With the aging population, the incidence of brain diseases is increasing year by year. The development of minimally invasive neurosurgical procedures, such as SEEG and DBS, to treat Parkinson's disease and epilepsy is one of the important contributions of medical science to human civilization. The specific operation involves the doctor inserting a thin surgical instrument into the patient's brain tissue through a tiny opening in the skull after the patient's MRI scan. The surgery has the advantages of small incision, less bleeding, fast recovery, and significant relief of postoperative pain, which greatly improves the patient's quality of life. However, as time goes by after surgery, the subthalamic nucleus (STN) inevitably shrinks centripetally. Only by accurately puncturing the EEG needle to the center of the anatomical structure can the effective service life of the EEG needle be improved. In addition, the surgery also brings operational difficulties, such as: (1) complicated surgical planning; (2) long operation time, which can easily lead to fatigue for doctors and patients; (3) a large number of important blood vessels and nerves in the brain, which are not easy to avoid.

[0003] Some existing surgical robots have solved the above problems to a certain extent. However, some commercially available robots contain ferromagnetic materials and cannot be used in MRI rooms, which cannot meet all clinical needs. Specifically: (1) Relying solely on preoperative MRI image registration for navigation, doctors lack a sense of depth and direction. Verifying electrode placement by measuring EEG signals also results in inaccurate positioning. (2) Problems such as changes in puncture path and electrode implantation failure due to elastic deformation of instruments and deformation of organs and tissues exist. (3) Performing surgery in a non-MRI environment requires cumbersome postoperative accuracy verification.

[0004] MRI-compatible surgical robots can comprehensively address the aforementioned issues and meet the requirements for robotic surgery within an MRI room. The paper "Merging machines with microsurgery: clinical experience with NeuroArm" discloses a 6-DOF MRI-compatible robotic arm used to assist surgeons in performing craniotomy and instrument handling under MRI conditions, and can simultaneously complete intraoperative MRI scans. However, the end effector positioning error of this robotic arm exceeds 1mm, which cannot meet the requirements for high-precision puncture and implantation of neurological diseases. Therefore, there is a need in this field to develop a robot that can perform surgery directly within an MRI scanner while meeting rigidity and precision requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a brain interventional surgical robot.

[0006] The technical solution of the present invention to solve the aforementioned technical problem is to provide a brain interventional surgical robot, characterized in that the robot includes a horizontal motion module, a swing module, a parallel motion frame, a front telescopic module, a front groove sliding component, a rear telescopic module, a rear groove sliding component, a front passive adjustment module, a rear passive adjustment module, a replaceable actuator module, and a base. The parallel motion frame includes a rotating frame, a third transmission wire, a fourth transmission wire, a front sliding groove, a rear sliding groove, a third transmission wire track, and a fourth transmission wire track; the front passive adjustment module and the rear passive adjustment module have the same structure and installation method; the front passive adjustment module includes a front passive adjustment module outer ring and a front passive adjustment module inner ring; The swing module is mounted in the base via a horizontal motion module, which drives the swing module to perform horizontal linear motion in the forward and backward direction. The rotating frame is fixed on the swing module and swings clockwise or counterclockwise with the swing module. A front sliding groove and a rear sliding groove are opened along the circumference of the rotating frame. A third transmission wire track is opened in the front sliding groove. The third transmission wire slides along the third transmission wire track. A fourth transmission wire track is opened in the rear sliding groove. The fourth transmission wire slides along the fourth transmission wire track. The sliding component in the front groove is slidably installed in the front sliding groove, and the third transmission wire is fixedly connected to the sliding component in the front groove. Both ends of the third transmission wire are fixedly connected to the output end of an external motor. By the forward and reverse rotation of the motor, the third transmission wire is pulled to make the third transmission wire move clockwise or counterclockwise along the track of the third transmission wire, thereby driving the sliding component in the front groove to move clockwise or counterclockwise along the track of the third transmission wire. The sliding component in the rear groove is slidably installed in the rear sliding groove, and the fourth transmission wire is fixedly connected to the sliding component in the rear groove. Both ends of the fourth transmission wire are fixedly connected to the output end of an external motor. By the forward and reverse rotation of the motor, the fourth transmission wire is pulled to achieve clockwise or counterclockwise circular motion along the track of the third transmission wire, thereby driving the sliding component in the rear groove to perform clockwise or counterclockwise circular motion along the track of the fourth transmission wire. The housing of the front telescopic module is fixed to the sliding component in the front groove; the rotating shaft of the outer ring of the front passive adjustment module is rotatably installed in the output end of the front telescopic module and rotates along the vertical axis; the rotating shafts at both ends of the inner ring of the front passive adjustment module are rotatably installed inside the outer ring of the front passive adjustment module and rotate along the horizontal axis. The housing of the rear telescopic module is fixed to the sliding component in the rear groove, and the output end is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft of the outer ring of the rear passive adjustment module; the replaceable actuator module is fixedly installed in the inner ring of the rear passive adjustment module and slidably installed in the inner ring of the front passive adjustment module.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: (1) This invention has three telecentric fixed points and six degrees of freedom, which can flexibly adjust the posture of surgical instruments, accurately position them, and have a complete working space. It is suitable for MRI environments, has high precision and high rigidity, improves surgical accuracy, shortens the surgical process, improves surgical efficiency, reduces the workload of medical staff, ensures the safety of patients during the surgical process, and meets clinical needs.

[0008] (2) The present invention has three distal fixed points, which can flexibly adjust the posture of the surgical instruments and avoid important blood vessels and nerves in the brain, thus meeting clinical needs.

[0009] (3) The present invention can realize flexible six-degree-of-freedom motion in the same X, Y, Z three mutually perpendicular coordinate systems. The horizontal motion module provides the X-direction movement degree of freedom, the swing module provides the X and Z-direction movement degrees of freedom and the rotation degree of freedom around the Y axis, and the dual-distal fixed-point telecentric motion mechanism provides the Y and Z-direction movement degrees of freedom and the rotation degree of freedom around the X, Y, Z axes. The workspace completely covers the surgical space from the top of the skull to the maxillofacial region, meeting clinical requirements.

[0010] (4) The present invention adopts a series-parallel hybrid structure. The horizontal motion module and the swing module constitute a series motion structure, and the dual telecentric fixed point telecentric motion mechanism constitutes a parallel motion structure, which improves the rigidity of the robot system and makes the robot have higher stability and accuracy.

[0011] (5) The present invention adopts the wire drive remote transmission method. The external motor shaft has two sections of equal pitch threads with opposite directions of rotation. When the external motor rotates, one section is screwed in and the other section is screwed out with a transmission wire of equal length. Controlling the rotation direction of the external motor can control the movement direction of the transmission wire, so that no MRI image artifacts are generated when the robot is powered on. This is beneficial for real-time verification of the puncture position of surgical instruments by MRI images. It has the advantages of reducing the weight of the robot, reducing the size of the robot, and increasing the driving torque.

[0012] (6) The present invention uses a telescopic module, which further reduces the size of the robot's parallel structure, so that the robot can move without interference in the cavity of the nuclear magnetic resonance instrument.

[0013] (7) This invention does not contain ferromagnetic materials and can be used in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) instruments. Attached Figure Description

[0027] Preferably, all drive wires are made of copper or titanium wire rope.

[0028] The parallel motion frame 3, the front telescopic module 4, the front groove sliding component 5, the rear telescopic module 6, the rear groove sliding component 7, the front passive adjustment module 8, and the rear passive adjustment module 9 constitute a dual-distal-fixed-point telescopic motion mechanism.

The intersection of the axis of the rotating frame 301 and the rotation axis of the rotating joint 202 is the third telescopic-fixed point.

[0029] The working principle and workflow of this invention are as follows: (1) In the interventional surgery of functional neurological diseases, the robot is fixed on the MRI bed board by the base 11. The registration and calibration between the robot-lesion-MRI coordinate system is completed by one MRI imaging. The doctor plans the robot motion based on the registration and calibration results.

[0030] (2) Based on the motion planning results, the external motor drives the horizontal motion module 1, the swing module 2, the parallel motion frame 3, the front telescopic module 4, the front groove sliding component 5, the rear telescopic module 6, the rear groove sliding component 7, the front passive adjustment module 8, the rear passive adjustment module 9, and the replaceable actuator module 10 to reach the corresponding spatial position to achieve the surgical purpose. Specifically: The external motor of the horizontal motion module 1 rotates. Since the length of the first transmission wire 101 is fixed inside the base 11, the length between the first fixed wire block 105 and the transmission wire tension wheel 106 is not fixed. This drives the first transmission wire 101 to move tangentially along the first transmission wire guide wheel 104 and the transmission wire tension wheel 106. The linear slider 103 causes the swing module support arm 204 to move linearly along the linear guide rail 102. The direction of movement is the direction of length change of the first transmission wire 101 between the first fixed wire block 105 and the transmission wire tension wheel 106, so as to realize the swing module 2 moving forward or backward along the horizontal motion module 1. The external motor of the swing module 2 rotates, driving the parallel motion frame 3 installed on the swing module 2 to swing clockwise or counterclockwise. The second transmission wire 201 has the same transmission law as the first transmission wire 101. The external motor pulls the second transmission wire 201 at one end of the swing module support arm 204 and releases the second transmission wire 201 at the other end. The rotating joint 202 rotates in the pulling direction of the second transmission wire 201. The rocking arm 206 rotates with the rotating joint 202. The swing module connecting shaft 205, which is fixedly connected to the rocking arm 206, slides in the arc-shaped through hole of the swing module support arm 204. The rotating frame 301 slides in the arc-shaped through hole along with the swing module connecting shaft 205. Two external motors of the parallel motion frame 3 rotate, driving the sliding parts 5 and 7 in the front and rear slots to slide clockwise or counterclockwise on the parallel motion frame 3. The third transmission wire 302 and the fourth transmission wire 303 have the same transmission law as the first transmission wire 101. The two external motors pull and release the third transmission wire 302 and the fourth transmission wire 303 respectively. The sliding part 5 in the front slot slides along the front sliding slot 304 toward the contraction direction of the third transmission wire 302, and the sliding part 7 in the rear slot slides along the rear sliding slot 305 toward the contraction direction of the fourth transmission wire 303. The front telescopic module 4 slides along the front sliding slot 304 with the sliding part 5 in the front slot, and the rear telescopic module 6 slides along the rear sliding slot 305 with the sliding part 7 in the rear slot. The external motor of the front telescopic module 4 rotates, driving the front passive adjustment module 8 installed on the front telescopic module 4 to move linearly. The fifth transmission wire 401 has the same transmission law as the first transmission wire 101. The external motor pulls and releases the fifth transmission wire 401 outside the telescopic arm housing 402, driving the first-stage telescopic arm 404 to move linearly along the pulling direction of the fifth transmission wire 401. When the first-stage telescopic arm 404 moves, the first-stage drive gear 403 rotates, pushing the second-stage telescopic arm 406 to extend or retract in line with the first-stage telescopic arm 404. Similarly, when the second-stage telescopic arm 406 moves, the second-stage drive gear 405 rotates, pushing the third-stage telescopic arm 407 to extend or retract in line with the second-stage telescopic arm 406. The passive adjustment module 8 moves linearly in line with the third-stage telescopic arm 407 in the extension or retraction direction.

[0031] The rear telescopic module 6 is the same as the front telescopic module 4, driving the rear passive adjustment module 9, which is installed on the rear telescopic module 6, to move a certain distance in a straight line; The front passive adjustment module 8 and the rear passive adjustment module 9 passively adjust the angle of their own components to bring the replaceable actuator module 10 to the surgical position. The inner and outer rings of the front passive adjustment module 8 and the rear passive adjustment module 9 can rotate relative to each other, so that when the front telescopic module 4 and the rear telescopic module 6 move in a straight line, the replaceable actuator module 10 can perform a composite motion combining straight line, pitch, and oscillation. When the front telescopic module 4 or the rear telescopic module 6 moves in a circle around the front sliding groove 304 or the rear sliding groove 305, the replaceable actuator module 10 can also perform a composite motion combining straight line, pitch, and oscillation.

[0032] Any aspects not covered in this invention are applicable to existing technologies.
