    摘要: A robotic medical system comprises a catheter having an elongated shaft with a plurality of flexible segments spaced apart along the catheter, and a drive unit coupled to the catheter. The catheter may have a plurality of cables respectively terminating at the flexible segments, in which case, the drive unit will be coupled to the plurality of cables. The robotic medical system further comprises a user interface remote from the drive unit and configured for generating at least one command, and an electric controller configured, in response to the command(s), for directing the drive unit to independently bend the flexible segments (e.g., three flexible segments).

    摘要: A system guides a medical instrument or like implement through an anatomical body such as a human patient. The system may include a drive system which moves the implement through the anatomical body, and a controller that directs the operation of the drive system. The system may also include a plotting system that provides an image of a region of the anatomical body and automatically plots a path for the implement to a site of interest, while the controller directs the drive system to move the implement to the site of interest over the path identified in the image.
