AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
The retraction of the robotic arm during patient repositioning interrupts imaging or surgical procedures in robotic medical systems, necessitating a coordinated movement between the patient platform and the robotic arm to maintain continuous operation.
Method used
A patient platform system with a movable tabletop and kinematic chains that allow coordinated movement with the robotic arm, maintaining pre-set conditions such as remote center of motion and spatial relationships to prevent arm retraction during patient repositioning.
Benefits of technology
The solution ensures continuous operation of the robotic arm without interruption, enhancing procedural efficiency and safety by preventing collisions and maintaining tool alignment during patient repositioning.

Abstract
The present invention provides a patient platform system and a patient platform system that provides coordinated motion between the patient platform system and the robotic arm of a robotic medical system that is coupled to or used in conjunction with the patient platform system. [Solution] A patient platform system 10 comprises a table having a rigid base and a tabletop movable relative to the rigid base, a first robotic arm 12 coupled to the table, one or more processors, and a memory for storing instructions, wherein when an instruction is executed by one or more processors, it causes one or more processors to initiate a first movement of the tabletop relative to the rigid base, and to suppress changes in the spatial relationship between the first distal portion of the first robotic arm and the tabletop during the first movement of the tabletop.
