Abstract: Systems and methods for minimally invasive procedures include a computer-assisted system comprising a manipulator assembly configured to couple to a cannula and a controller coupled to the manipulator assembly. The cannula has a lumen configured to receive a shaft of an instrument. The controller is configured to position a remote center of motion for the manipulator assembly at a first location relative to the cannula, and in response to an indication to reposition the remote center of motion relative to the cannula, reposition the remote center of motion to a second location relative to the cannula while constraining the second location to be located along the cannula. The second location is different from the first location.

Abstract: Systems and methods for minimally invasive computer-assisted telesurgery are described. For example, this disclosure describes cannula devices for use with computer-assisted teleoperated surgery systems. The cannula devices can facilitate enlargement of a minimally invasive surgical workspace by creating a tissue tent. The devices and methods described herein can be used in conjunction with computer-assisted teleoperated surgery systems that use either hardware-constrained remote centers of motion or software-constrained remote centers of motion.

Abstract: A computer-assisted system includes a manipulator assembly configured to couple to a cannula at a distal portion of the manipulator assembly. The cannula has a lumen configured to receive a shaft of an instrument. A cannula axis is aligned with the cannula when the cannula is coupled to the manipulator assembly. An instrument axis is aligned with the instrument when the instrument is coupled to the manipulator assembly. A controller coupled to the manipulator assembly is configured to receive an indication to reposition a remote center of motion (RCM) for the manipulator assembly while the RCM is positioned at a first location relative to the distal portion along an axis, wherein the axis is aligned with the cannula axis or the instrument axis; and in response to receiving the indication, cause the RCM to be positioned at a second location relative to the distal portion along the axis.

Abstract: Systems and methods for computer-assisted systems using robotic technology are described. For example, this disclosure describes systems and methods that can be used in various contexts such as, but not limited to, minimally invasive computer-assisted tele-operated surgery using robotic technology. The disclosure describes instruments and mechanisms for actuating and controlling the motions of such instruments. The instruments and actuator mechanisms may be used in medical operations and non-medical operations.
