A novel control method is proposed for master–slave telerobotic beating-heart surgery to solve the challenges of rapid heart motion and oscillatory haptic feedback. In this paper, the …
A novel impedance-controlled teleoperation system is developed for robot-assisted tele- echography of moving organs such as heart, chest and breast during their natural motions …

A novel switched-impedance control method is proposed and implemented for telerobotic beating-heart surgery. Differing from cardiopulmonary-bypass-based arrested-heart surgery …
This chapter will explore certain applications of control engineering for improving the performance of robotic and mechatronic systems for therapies and surgeries, we will …
Flexible bevel-tipped needle steering has been an active research topic since the last decade. However, most of the work presented so far performs flexible needle steering in …

In this paper, soft tissue is modeled by a mass–spring–damper system and tissue deformations under the compression of surgical instruments are simulated. For this purpose …
Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Conventional extra- and intra-cardiac surgeries need the heart to be arrested and involve connecting the patient …
