Description

[0002] Prostate cancer has a very high morbidity and mortality rate among urinary tract tumors, seriously endangering human health. Percutaneous biopsy and ablation are currently the most common diagnostic and treatment options.

[0003] Percutaneous puncture currently consists of two main methods: manual puncture and assisted puncture using a fixed surgical robot system. Manual puncture offers the advantages of portability and speed, but due to the current practice of multiple punctures, it is labor-intensive for the surgeon and the precision of the procedure decreases as the procedure progresses, significantly impacting the puncture outcome and resulting in a low success rate. Postoperative complications, ranging from mild to severe, can pose a serious threat to the patient's health.

The base plate A-8 is connected to the outer shell A-4 via screws distributed around the periphery, and the upper cover 15 is connected to the outer shell A-4 via knurled screws at both ends.

[0060] Reference Figure 6 The electric biopsy device of this invention performs three functions: puncture sampling, needle removal, and tissue extraction. Its base plate A-8 is provided with evenly spaced holes, allowing the device to be directly screwed onto a robot's end effector as a biopsy module, expanding the functionality of the puncture surgical robot.

[0061] Reference Figure 6 The electric biopsy device of the present invention allows for quick needle replacement without any tools. The specific operation is as follows: First, manually unscrew the knurled screws on both sides of the upper cover 15, remove the upper cover 15, and then, along the wedge-shaped grooves on the inner needle slider A-10 and outer needle slider A-12, detent the inner needle base A-9 and outer needle base A-13 by pressing the bosses on their upper ends. Then, prepare the replacement inner needle base A-9 and inner needle A-7, and outer needle base A-13 and outer needle A-6, respectively. The needle can be replaced quickly and conveniently by following the reverse sequence. No tools are required.

[0062] Combine Figures 6 to 10 The working principle of the electric biopsy device of the present invention is described as follows:

[0063] The electric biopsy device, which can be used as a robotic end effector and can be rapidly exchanged, comprises the following process: In the initial state, the inner needle is secured to the inner needle base and inner needle slider, and the outer needle is secured to the outer needle base and outer needle slider, respectively. Both the inner needle and the outer needle are located at the left limit position within the housing. When puncture sampling begins, the micro-electric push rod extends, transmitting power via the push rod pressure plate to the guide post and then to the inner needle slider, thereby moving the inner needle rightward, gradually exposing the sample receiving groove on the inner needle. Nearing the right limit position, the slot on the inner needle slider contacts the buckle on the outer needle slider. The buckle structure deforms inward through the central column, causing the preload spring to return to its free length. The impact force of the spring directly acts on the outer needle slider, causing the outer needle to rapidly eject until the right end of the outer needle slider contacts the inner needle slider, preserving the tissue within the sample receiving groove and completing the puncture sampling.

[0064] The needle withdrawal process of the electric biopsy device used as a robot end effector with rapid needle replacement is as follows: after the puncture sampling is completed, the inner needle and the outer needle are both located at the right limit position in the shell. When the needle withdrawal begins, the micro electric push rod contracts, and the power is transmitted to the guide column through the push rod pressure plate, and then transmitted to the inner needle slider and the outer needle slider, thereby driving the inner needle and the outer needle to move to the left at the same time. When approaching the left limit position, the buckle on the outer needle slider contacts the middle column, and the buckle structure deforms inward and locks after passing through the middle column. The pre-tightening spring reaches the maximum compression amount, and the outer needle, outer needle base and outer needle slider, as well as the inner needle, inner needle base and inner needle slider all return to the left limit position in the initial state, completing the needle withdrawal.

[0065] The tissue extraction process of the electric biopsy device, which can be used as a robotic end effector with a rapid needle exchange, is as follows: After needle withdrawal, both the inner and outer needles are at the left limit position within the housing. Tissue extraction begins when the micro-electric push rod extends, transmitting power via the push rod pressure plate to the guide post and then to the inner needle slider, thereby moving the inner needle to the right. The sampling receiving groove on the inner needle is gradually exposed, and the tissue sample in the sampling receiving groove can then be extracted. After tissue extraction is complete, the micro-electric push rod retracts, driving the inner needle to its left limit position.

[0066] The electric biopsy device of this invention performs three functions: puncture sampling, needle removal, and tissue extraction. Compared to existing Bard handheld biopsy guns, it allows for easy needle replacement without any tools, enabling reuse of the biopsy device. Furthermore, its detachable module, which can be integrated into the end effector of a puncture surgical robot, expands the robot's functionality. Its compact size and ease of use suggest significant potential for application in robotic-assisted biopsy procedures.

[0073] Combine Figures 1 to 6 The working principle of the present invention is described:

[0074] The parallel handheld prostate biopsy robot with a telecentric fixed point structure described in the present invention achieves its telecentric fixed point by utilizing the structure of the three-degree-of-freedom parallel robot. The three-degree-of-freedom parallel robot consists of two branches, each composed of a universal joint, a translational pair, and a revolute pair. The two branches are connected by a revolute pair. This structure creates a telecentric fixed point at the intersection of the axes of the two rotating pair motors. The parallel robot's end effector can only perform pitch and yaw motion around this telecentric fixed point, as well as translation along the common revolute pair axis of the two branches. The parallel handheld prostate biopsy robot with a telecentric fixed point structure described in the present invention is operated via buttons on the handle, which directly control the five power mechanisms of the three-degree-of-freedom parallel robot. The rotating pair motors 1 and 2 are active joints, coupling the two motors to output two rotational degrees of freedom, including pitch and yaw. The translational pair motor is also an active joint, ensuring that the needle tip does not move in the direction of the biopsy needle during posture adjustment. The slide provides power for the electric sampling device's feed motion, enabling the robot's translational freedom along the biopsy needle. The electric push rod provides power for the robot's puncture sampling and tissue extraction actions, integrating the biopsy gun's functionality into the robot's end effector. Ultimately, this achieves the biopsy needle's three degrees of freedom: pitch, yaw, and translation along the needle's direction, as well as the two biopsy actions of puncture sampling and tissue extraction. The OLED screen simultaneously displays the needle's pitch, yaw, and displacement along the needle's direction in real time, accurately indicating the device's current position to the user.

[0075] The parallel handheld prostate biopsy robot with a telecentric fixed-point structure described in this invention reduces the size, price, and learning curve of existing fixed surgical robot systems, significantly improving portability. It also reduces needle deflection during puncture, improving precision and addressing uneven force distribution during puncture, reducing wound size and minimizing tissue damage. This parallel handheld prostate biopsy robot offers low cost, ease of use, portability, and high precision, making it a highly promising handheld prostate biopsy device.
