Influence of force and torque feedback on operator performance in a VR-based suturing task

Hannes Bleuler, Roger Gassert, Ricardo Daniel Rita Beira, Ali Sengül, Laura Santos Carreras

The introduction of Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) has revolutionised surgical care, considerably improving the quality of many surgical procedures. Technological advances, particularly in robotic surgery systems, have reduced the complexity of such an a ...

Tendon-Based Transmission for Surgical Robotics: Systematic Experimental Friction Modeling

Hannes Bleuler, Patrick Schoeneich, Ricardo Daniel Rita Beira, Ali Sengül

Increased miniaturization of surgical instruments is essential to successfully perform surgical procedures in restricted areas as in many applications of minimally-invasive surgery. Miniaturization permits increase in dexterity and decrease in access incis ...

Design and Psychophysical Evaluation of a Tactile Pulse Display for Teleoperated Artery Palpation

Hannes Bleuler, Philippe Rétornaz, Roger Gassert, Laura Santos Carreras

During traditional open procedures, surgeons directly palpate tissues before dissecting them. In this way, they can avoid the accidental damage of hidden arteries that can lead to fatal hemorrhage. New Minimally Invasive Surgical (MIS) techniques progressi ...

Modélisation mécanique de fils pour la simulation chirurgicale

Lindo Robert Duratti

Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) represents one of the major progresses in surgery in the last decade. In general, it is based on the application of small body-cuts through which instruments are inserted into the patient's body allowing the surgeon to carr ...

Ligament balancing in TKA: Evaluation of a force-sensing device and the influence of patellar eversion and ligament release

Hannes Bleuler, Thomas Maeder, Denis Crottet

Ligament balancing in total knee arthroplasty may have an important influence on joint stability and prosthesis lifetime. In order to provide quantitative information and assistance during ligament balancing, a device that intraoperatively measures knee jo ...

M/ORIS - Medical / Operating Room Interaction System

Sébastien Grange

The routine use of Computer-Assisted Surgery (CAS) in a wide range of surgical procedures and specialties is being hindered by the lack of suitable user interface for surgical environments. While many computer techniques and software exist to assist surgeo ...

A force-sensing device for assistance in soft-tissue balancing during knee arthroplasty

Denis Crottet

Nowadays, the large majority of the instrumentation for orthopaedic surgery consists of mechanical tools with varying degrees of complexity. To increase the accuracy and the safety of orthopaedic interventions, sensors and computers were recently introduce ...

Haptic interface design and control with application to surgery simulation

Ulrich Spälter

This thesis proposes a framework for haptic devices interacting with virtual environments. As application of the theoretical results a haptic device for the surgical training of hysteroscopy, a gynecologic intervention, is presented. Surgery simulators, wh ...
