Abstract:
A master manipulator for operating a driving of a slave manipulator includes a grip portion that is positioned in a clean area, gripped by an operator, and provided with a predetermined operating member; and an arm portion that is positioned in an unclean area, and with which the grip portion is directly or indirectly connected. The grip portion has a movable member that moves in conjunction with displacement of the operating member and the arm portion has a position detection portion that detects the position of the movable member.
Abstract:
Provided is a medical apparatus including a treatment tool having a distal-end treatment section, a joint section, and a flexible elongated body section in this order from the distal end; a driver that is connected to the base end of the body section and that supplies a driving force to the joint section; an operation input unit that is a separate unit from the treatment tool and the driver and that has a main body holdable with one hand of an operator and an operable member disposed at a position where it is operable using a finger of the one hand holding the main body; and a controller that controls the driver in accordance with an operation command input to the operation input unit.
Abstract:
There is provided a master-slave system including: a slave unit including an observation optical system imaging a subject A; a treatment part projecting from a surface on which the observation optical system is provided and at least part of the treatment tools is imaged along with the subject A by the observation optical system; a master apparatus including an operating unit held and operated by an operator; a control unit associating operation of the operating unit of the master apparatus with motion of the slave unit and motion of the treatment part; and a monitor screen displaying an image acquired by the observation optical system, wherein the operating unit includes a command input unit into which a motion command for a slave unit is inputted while the operating unit is held by the operator without changing a pose of the operating unit.
Abstract:
A method of controlling an endoscopic device includes a first field-of-view-moving process of causing an imaging unit to move with respect to a distal end rigid section to a first side with respect to an axis of an insertion unit, an insertion-unit-moving process of bending a bending section to cause the distal end rigid section to move to the first side with respect to the axis of the insertion unit, and a second field-of-view-moving process of causing the imaging unit to move with respect to the distal end rigid section to a second side in an opposite direction of the first side with respect to the axis of the insertion unit.
Abstract:
A robotic-assisted surgical system includes a flexible inserted portion having an elongated shaft; a distal-end movement-amount detecting portion that detects an amount of movement of the distal end of the inserted portion; an operating unit that is disposed outside the body and that is operated by an operator outside the body; a driving portion that drives the inserted portion at a proximal end thereof in accordance with an operation signal input to the operating unit; and a control portion that calculates a difference between the amounts of movement of the distal end and the proximal end of the inserted portion, and that, in the case in which the difference is greater than a predetermined threshold, controls the driving portion so as to notifies the operator to that effect.
Abstract:
A surgical system includes an endoscope including an imager which captures an endoscopic image, a medical manipulator with an injection needle at a distal end section thereof, a drive device which controls the medical manipulator to control a position of the injection needle, and a processor. The processor is configured to: control to inject a target amount of a injection fluid into a syringe connected to the injection needle; acquire, from the imager, the endoscopic image in which a treatment target is captured; and perform a prescribed determination to determine success/failure of injection using the endoscopic image, and control the drive device to change the position of the injection needle based on a determination result of the prescribed determination.
Abstract:
A processing apparatus comprises a processor including hardware. The processor acquires structure data of an organ, acquires an endoscope image from an imager of an endoscope, and acquires an ultrasonic image from a probe of the endoscope. The processor automatically controls a probe position of the endoscope based on the structure data and the distal end position information of the endoscope in a first control mode, and automatically controls the probe position based on the ultrasonic image in a second control mode.
Abstract:
A processing apparatus includes a processor. The processor acquires an image in which region marker information of a lesion is set with respect to an ultrasonic image of an ultrasonic endoscope with a biopsy needle, and calculates an angle of the biopsy needle for inserting the biopsy needle into the lesion based on a movable range of the biopsy needle and the region marker information.
Abstract:
A medical support apparatus has one processor or more, and the processor is configured to: acquire a medical image; and based on the medical image, generate a guidance display that indicates a boundary between segments whose recommendation levels for medical treatment are different in the medical image and that is to be superimposed on the medical image.
Abstract:
A medical manipulator system including: a manipulator provided with an elongated portion, a movable portion which has one or more joints, and a driving portion which is disposed at a proximal end of the elongated portion and which drives the movable portion; a medical device having a channel that can accommodate at least a portion of the elongated portion and the movable portion; a manipulation input portion that generates an operation instruction for moving the manipulator between a treatment state in which the movable portion protrudes from a distal end of the channel and an accommodated state in which the movable portion is accommodated in the channel in accordance with a manipulation instruction input; and a notifying portion that notifies a situation in which the manipulator is shifting from the treatment state to the accommodated state.
