    摘要: A system and method is configured for use with an endoscope, a biopsy needle, and a data acquisition system. The system includes a sensor tip and a pressure sensor coupled to the sensor tip and having at least one piezo-resistor component with an internal-facing side and an external-facing side, and an opening adjacent to the at least one piezo-resistor component to allow fluid access to the internal-facing side and the external-facing side. The system also includes a tubing member with a distal end and a proximal end, the sensor tip coupled to the distal end, the sensor tip and the tubing member configured to be routed through the biopsy needle and connection elements coupled to the proximal end of the tubing member, the connection elements configured to mount the tubing member relative to the biopsy needle and to couple the pressure sensor to the data acquisition system.

    摘要: Robotic systems and methods for the automatic guidance of medical catheters into anatomical structures during various medical procedures are disclosed. A motor controlled insertion mechanism and a motor controlled rotation mechanism are configured to combine catheter insertion and rotation such as to twist the catheter while advancing into the anatomical structure. A navigation-system determines the position in the anatomical structure of a tracking-sensor disposed on the tip of the catheter. The motion of the catheter is controlled via the motors A controller controls, via the motors, the movement of the catheter into the anatomical structure function of the position of the tracking sensor. The methods, systems and devices described herein significantly decrease X-ray exposure to both patient and doctor, minimize friction between the catheter and robotic components, reduce the size of robotic systems, reduce production costs, and reduce the duration of clinical procedures.
