MRI-guided intervention for the liver and kidney has achieved considerable progress in tumour diagnosis and treatment over the past two decades. However, due to the space constraints associated with the narrow and deep bore of the MRI machines, it is still extremely challenging for clinicians to position and drive the needle-shaped probes used for delivering the treatment where … [Read more...] about Magnetic Resonance Imaging-Guided Needle Insertion Robots: A Review of Systems for Liver and Kidney Interventions [Survey]

High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Surgery Based on KUKA Robot
High-intensity focused ultrasound surgery based on a KUKA robot (HIFUSK) can address unmet clinical needs in the treatment of pathological tissues, such as cancerous tissues. HIFUSK is the marriage of two technologies: robotics and focused ultrasound (FUS). Such a combination results in a surgical treatment that is precise and noninvasive (no incisions, no anesthesia, and no … [Read more...] about High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Surgery Based on KUKA Robot
