TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of prostate minimally invasive medical devices, in particular to a corrector for improving the puncture accuracy of a prostate particle implantation needle. BACKGROUND
[0002] Prostate cancer is one of the high-incidence malignant tumors in the world, and the incidence is gradually increasing. Particle implantation treatment has the advantages of small trauma, fast effect, small recurrence rate and simple operation, so it has become the main technical means for treating prostate cancer. Prostate particle implantation adopts a percutaneous targeted puncture intervention method. In the process of prostate particle implantation, the tip and body of the particle implantation needle (which is a semi-flexible needle) interact with the punctured tissue. The interaction between the needle and the tissue will cause the deflection of the particle implantation needle during particle implantation, resulting in the inability of the needle tip to reach the planned position, low puncture accuracy, and the need for the doctor to pull out the particle implantation needle and re-puncture, causing secondary injury to the patient.
[0003] Patent application No. CN201911073391.9 discloses an electric gear and rack type prostate particle implantation device. The device uses a friction wheel transmission to achieve internal needle implantation, and uses a gear and rack transmission to achieve external needle feeding, achieving fully automatic particle implantation. However, the device cannot modify the position of the needle tip during the operation.
[0004] Patent application No. CN 201510084488.5 discloses a close-range image navigation fully automatic radioactive particle implantation device. The device is divided into a puncture needle adjustment module and a particle implantation module. The puncture needle adjustment module adjusts the position of the needle tip by rotating the puncture needle. However, the device has the following disadvantages: adjusting the position of the needle tip by rotating the needle will cause the needle body to adhere to the surrounding tissue, causing secondary injury to the patient.

[0024] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.
[0025] Specific embodiment 1 of the corrector for improving the puncture accuracy of prostate particle implantation needle provided by the present invention:
[0026] In this embodiment, as Figures 1-5 As shown, a corrector for improving the puncture accuracy of prostate particle implantation needles mainly consists of a force sensor 1, a protruding needle guide 2, a motor base 3, a motor stabilizing belt 4, a needle support frame 5, a sensor smooth moving platform 6, two T-shaped guide rails 7, a rack 8, a base 9, a gear 10, and a motor 11.
[0027] Specifically, the sensor stabilizing platform 6 is mounted on two guide rails 7 and is driven by an electric drive mechanism consisting of a gear 10, a rack 8, and a motor 11. This electric drive mechanism drives the sensor stabilizing platform 6 to move on the two guide rails 7 in the Y-axis direction. The rack 8 is fixed to the sensor stabilizing platform 6 by pins, and the motor 11 is fixed to the motor 11 base 3 by pins. The motor 11 stabilizing belt 4 is fixed to the needle support frame 5 and the base 9 by pins. The motor 11 stabilizing belt 4 is in close contact with the motor 11 to stabilize the motor 11. The rack 8 is fixed to the sensor stabilizing platform 6, and the motor 11 drives the sensor stabilizing platform 6 to move on the guide rails 7 through the meshing transmission between the gear 10 and the rack 8.
[0028] The protruding needle guide 2 and the needle support frame 5 are used to pass through and support the particle implantation needle 12. The force sensor 1 is fixed on the sensor stable moving platform 6 by a pin. The protruding needle guide 2 is fixed on the force sensor 1 by a pin. The protruding needle guide 2 is provided with a needle guide hole 13, which is composed of two frustum holes. The two frustum holes are symmetrically arranged, and the diameter of the connecting surface of the two frustum holes is equal to the outer diameter of the particle implantation needle 12. When a corrective force is applied, the needle guide hole 13 applies a corrective force F to the particle implantation needle 12 in the Y-axis direction in a point-applying manner.
[0029] To reduce friction between the sensor smoothing stage 6 and the guide rail 7 and the base 9, the sensor smoothing stage 6 includes a mounting frame 14 and two side plates 15. The two side plates 15 are fixed to both sides of the mounting frame 14. The bottom of the mounting frame 14 is provided with four first micro bearings 16, and the bottom of each side plate 15 is provided with two second micro bearings 17. The four first micro bearings 16 make rolling contact with the base 9 to reduce the friction between the mounting frame 14 and the base 9, while the four second micro bearings 17 make contact with the T-shaped guide rail 7 to reduce friction with the guide rail 7 and restrict the sensor smoothing stage 6 to move only along the Y-axis direction.
[0030] like Figure 6 As shown, when a person inserts a needle along the Z-axis towards the target point, the needle tip bends, with a bend value of d. At this point, the needle insertion is stopped, and the motor 11 is started. Through the meshing transmission of the rack 8 and the gear 10, the sensor smooth moving stage 6 is driven to move along the guide rail 7 (Y-axis direction). Due to the special structure and shape of the guide hole 13 of the protruding needle guide 2, when a corrective force is applied, the guide hole 13 applies a corrective force F to the particle implantation needle 12 in the Y-axis direction in a point-force manner. After the force is applied, the needle continues to be inserted, so as to accurately puncture the target point. Figure 6 In this context, d represents the deflection value, t represents the target point, P represents the prostate tissue, and L represents the needle insertion distance.
[0031] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the present invention as claimed. The scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
