    Abstract: A robotic surgical system incorporating a surgical robot attached to a patient's bone by an attachment member, such that motion of the bone induces corresponding motion of the robot, maintaining the robot/bone positional relationship. The robot is supported on a mechanical mounting member attached through a controlled joint to a bed-mounted base element. The controlled joint can alternatively enable the mechanical mounting member to move freely relative to the base element, or its position can be controlled by signal inputs adapted to prevent excessive force being applied in the system. Two modes of operation are available (i) free motion in which the control system is decoupled from the mounting member, which rides freely with patient bone motion, and (ii) servo-controlled motion, in which drive mechanisms control the joint motion to prevent application of excessive force on the patient bone or attachment member.

    Abstract: A drilling guide cannula, having a serrated distal end in the form of axially moveable teeth which enables all or most of the teeth to maintain biting contact with the bone surface, essentially independently of the curvature of the bone surface and the drilling angle. The cannula outer wall incorporates a number of pins arranged circumferentially around the drilling bore. These pins slide axially relative to the cannula, preferably in bored holes or in channels formed within the wall of the cannula. Each of the secondary pins has a sharpened distal end, each constituting a moveable tooth. The cannula is applied to the bone to be drilled at the desired drilling position and angle, and the pins are forced axially towards the bone surface. The pins take up the contour of the bone surface and each pin bites into the bone surface to rigidly position the drilling guide cannula.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for assuring effective backup for sensor failure in robots, by utilizing a single extra sensor attached between the end actuator and the base. The single extra sensor provides absolute back-up for any single encoder failure that may occur in the system, and statistically significant back-up for any double encoder failure. A single additional sensor effectively provides the robotic system with one redundant information input to the robot control algorithm, which can be used in order to determine whether any of the other control sensors, or even the additional sensor itself, has failed and is delivering an erroneous reading, and hence to warn the operator of the failure. A single additional sensor also provides useful warning of the simultaneous failure of two sensors, since the likelihood that two sensors fail simultaneously in a mode that makes the failures undetectable, can be regarded as statistically insignificant.

    Abstract: A miniature surgical robot and a method for using it are disclosed. The miniature surgical robot attaches directly with the bone of a patient. Two-dimensional X-ray images of the robot on the bone are registered with three-dimensional images of the bone. This locates the robot precisely on the bone of the patient. The robot is then directed to pre-operative determined positions based on a pre-operative plan by the surgeon. The robot then moves to the requested surgical site and aligns a sleeve through which the surgeon can insert a surgical tool.

    Abstract: A novel image-guided system for precise automatic targeting in minimally invasive keyhole neurosurgery. The system consists of a miniature robot fitted with a mechanical guide for needle, probe, or catheter insertion. Intraoperative, the robot is directly affixed to a head clamp or to the patient skull. It automatically positions itself with respect to predefined entry points and targets in a preoperative CT/MRI image following an anatomical registration with an intraoperative 3D surface scan of the patient facial features and a registration jig. The registration procedure is a novel three-way scheme, in which the intraoperative surface scan including the registration jig is matched to a model generated from the preoperative CT/MRI image, the robot position is known in relation to the registration jig, and the entry and target points are known from the preoperative CT/MRI image, such that the robot position can be related to the entry and target points.

    Abstract: A self cleaning inlet head for use on a shunt. The head has a tube with openings disposed in predetermined positions in its wall, and a cleaning element installed inside the tube. The cleaning element may comprise a central shaft with a number of bristles protruding therefrom, preferably in locations substantially identical to the positions of the openings in the wall of the tube. Mutual vibratory motion between the cleaning element and the tube causes at least some of the bristles to enter the openings, thereby keeping them clear, and preventing tissue growth into them. The vibratory motion may be generated by the action of an external field on a responsive part of the cleaning element, such as an external magnetic field operating on a magnetic or magnetized part of the cleaning element or the bristles. Alternatively, the external field may be an ultrasound field operating on the bristles.
