This study presents novel path plans for robotic suture needles in endoscopic surgery, mimicking surgeon techniques to minimize tissue interaction forces. Experiments validate two distinct needle-driving methods for improved surgical outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Robotics in Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Procedures
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Endoscopic surgery requires precise instrument control.
  • Suture needle manipulation in solid tissues presents challenges.
  • Minimizing tissue-needle interaction forces is crucial for patient safety.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and compare two robotic path planning techniques for suture needles in endoscopic surgery.
  • To base these techniques on established surgeon best practices.
  • To reduce forces exerted on tissue during suturing.

Main Methods:

  • Development of two distinct suture needle path plans based on surgical guides.
  • Robotic implementation of the developed motion plans.
