Concentric tube robots (CTRs) have drawn significant research attention over the years,
particularly due to their applications in minimally invasive surgery (MIS). Indeed, their small …

In this paper, we describe the state of the art in continuum robot manipulators and systems
intended for application to interventional medicine. Inspired by biological trunks, tentacles …

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a stroke subtype with high mortality and disability, and
there are no proven medical treatments that can improve the functional outcome of ICH …

Precise manipulation of flexible surgical tools is crucial in minimally invasive surgical
procedures, necessitating a miniature and flexible robotic probe that can precisely direct the …

Objective: This paper aims to investigate a new continuum robot design and its motion
implementation methods appropriate for a minimally invasive intracerebral hemorrhage …

This paper presents the use of shape memory alloy (SMA) spring actuators with real-time
cooling to control the motion of the minimally invasive neurosurgical intracranial robot …

Objective: We aim to develop and evaluate an MR-conditional concentric tube robot for
intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) evacuation. Methods: We fabricated the concentric tube …

This letter deals with the development of a vision-based controller for a continuum robot
architecture. More precisely, the controlled robotic structure is based on three-tube …

Background Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is one of the deadliest forms of stroke in the
USA. Conventional surgical techniques such as craniotomy or stereotactic aspiration disrupt …

Intracerebral hemorrhage is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. To date,
there is no specific treatment that clearly provides a benefit in functional outcome or …
