A robotic surgical system includes one or more robotic actuators configured to interact with biological tissue during a surgical procedure. A plurality of sensors include at least one of fiber Bragg grating sensors, piezoelectric strain sensors, or magnetostrictive sensors to capture real-time mechanical, elasticity, or deformation data from biological tissues. deep learning engine trained on a dataset comprising tissue mechanical responses across multiple tissue types, pathological states, and patient demographics. Pre-contact predictive adjustment profiles are generated for anticipated tissue interactions using preoperative imaging data registered to intraoperative coordinates. Intraoperative deviations are detected from predicted mechanical behavior and autonomously recalibrate actuator forces. Upcoming surgical maneuvers are anticipated based on prior task sequences and adjust actuator stiffness or damping properties in preparation for anticipated contact. An emergency override of actuator forces is provided via an anomaly detection module when real-time sensor data deviates beyond a threshold from the predicted safe mechanical response range. A feedback loop iteratively refines the deep learning engine during the procedure using supervised learning updates, anomaly detection, and reinforcement learning strategies. The reinforcement learning model is optionally shared across procedures to optimize distributed actuator force patterns for minimizing localized and cumulative tissue stress.

Everzional carotid endarterectomy represents the main surgical procedure intended for the treatment of atherosclerosis in the carotid arteries. One of the key challenges of this operation is ensuring adequate control of the distal part of the atherosclerotic plaque. Inadequate control in this part of the procedure can result in the retention of small plaque fragments, significantly increasing the risk of postoperative ischemic stroke. To address this issue, our medical instrument allows for better control and reduces the risk of complications after surgery. Our technique involves visual inspection of the hard-to-reach segment of the distal part of the artery using an everzional ring during standard everzional carotid endarterectomy. This innovative approach uses a specially designed ring on a curved support through which the carotid artery is threaded and rotated around the entire circumference of the ring, allowing for more precise and efficient removal of the atherosclerotic plaque.
