This study introduces a new method for tracking soft-tissue motion during robotic surgery. The technique enhances surgical guidance and motion compensation in minimally invasive procedures.

Area of Science:

  • Robotics
  • Surgical Technology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Accurate soft-tissue motion tracking is crucial for robotic surgery, enabling better surgical guidance and motion compensation.
  • Current methods face challenges in real-time tracking of deformable surfaces during minimally invasive procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel feature-based method for tracking deformable soft-tissue surfaces in robotic surgery.
  • To improve intraoperative surgical guidance and motion compensation in totally endoscopic coronary artery bypass graft (TECAB) surgery.

Main Methods:

  • A novel method combining two feature detectors to identify distinct regions on the epicardial surface.
  • Computation of sparse 3D surface geometry using a pre-calibrated stereo laparoscope.

  • Iterative registration algorithm for tracking 3D point movement in stereo images with stereo-temporal constraints.
  • Main Results:

    • Demonstrated practical value on a deformable phantom model with tomographically derived surface geometry.
    • Validated in vivo using robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery (MIS) image sequences.
    • Successfully tracked soft-tissue motion for enhanced surgical guidance.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed feature-based motion tracking method is effective for deformable soft-tissue surfaces in robotic surgery.
    • This technique offers significant potential for improving intraoperative guidance and motion compensation in TECAB surgery.
    • The method's applicability is confirmed in both phantom and in vivo surgical scenarios.
