  2. Outline • Motivation • Introduction • Proposed Solution • Prototype Device I and II • Animal Tests • Results and Conclusion • Contributions and Future Work • Acknowledgement

  3. Minimally Invasive Surgery

  4. Limitations of Standard Endoscope • Paradigm of pushing long sticks into small openings. • Narrow angle imaging. • Limited workspace. • Counter intuitive motion. • Assistants needed to control the camera. • Additional incisions for other laparoscopic instruments.

  5. Robotic Surgery • Robotic surgery is future of surgery. • Increase the dexterity and fine motion capabilities of surgeon. • Decrease the tremor of surgeon’s hand. • Enable remote operation. • Current surgical robot. • Enormous size. • Extremely high cost. • Multiple assistants needed. • Multiple incisions needed as non-robotic MIS. • Compact and inexpensive surgical robot is needed.

  6. In-Vivo Imaging Devices • Rod-lens by Hopkins and cold light source of fiber optics by Karl Storz. • Flexible endoscope using fiber optics to delivery light and transmit image. • Pill camera without locomotion. • Endoscope with rotating mirror. • Endoscope positioned by multilink arm with piezoelectric actuators. Karl Storz Endoscope Flexible Endoscope Pill camera Gao et al., 1998 Ikuta et. al., 2002

  7. Proposed Solution • An insertable surgical robot platform with sensors and effectors in the body cavity where they can perform surgical & imaging tasks unfettered by traditional endoscopic instrument design. • A prototype of a novel insertable Pan/Tilt endoscope with integrated light source. • The incision port is left open access, allowing for single port surgery.

  8. Prototype Device I • Stereo camera with 6 DOF are desirable – full mobility • Difficult to achieve in small actuated package • Compromise – 3 DOF per camera • Cameras share tilt axis (1 DOF) • Independent translation (2 DOF) • Independent pan (2 DOF) Design of 5-DOF insertable camera device

  9. Single Camera Prototype I Diameter: 22 mm; Length: 190 mm Camera opening: 58 mm 3 DOF: Pan: 120°; Tilt: 130°; Translation: 50 mm Video

  10. Improvements Needed for Prototype II • Much reduced size: • Smaller diameter • Reduce length • Needs light source • Make imaging head modular design • Tradeoff: Degrees-of-freedom for compactness

  11. Prototype II • 110 mm in length and 11 mm in diameter. • 120 degrees Pan/ 90 degrees Tilt. • Integrated 8 LED light source and miniature camera module. • Package to protect the delicate electronics and fragile wires from body fluid and moisture. • Fully sealed camera module. • Joint sealed by rubber boot. • Joystick control.

  12. Prototype II (Cont.)

  13. LED Light Source • Light-emitting diode (LED) as a light source in laparoscopy: • Lower power • Higher efficiency • Compact package • Longer lifespan • Lower cost • Luxeon portable PWT white LED(LXCL_PWT1) • 2.0 X1.6 X 0.7 mm • 26 lumens of light at 350 mA • 8 PWT LED in a printed circuit board with 9mm diameter. • 208 lumens light at 8.4 w

  14. Camera Module • Pin hole lens (PTS 5.0 from Universe Kogaku America) • Focal length 5.0 mm. • F number 4. • Angle of view D-H-V(85.4-68.3-50.9 ). • 6.5 mm CCD camera sensor. • NET USA Inc, CSH-1.4-V4-END-R1. • 450 TV lines in horizontal resolution and 420 TV lines in vertical resolution. • Protective window by sapphire.

  15. Pan/Tilt Mechanism • Miniature Brushless DC motor (0513G, Faulhaber Group). • 25mNm output torque. • 5.8 mm in diameter. • Miniature worm gear (Kleiss Gear Inc.) • Gear ratio 16:1. • Compact size. • Increased torque. • Sleeve bearing to reduce the friction of tilt motion.

  16. Working Device in the Animal Test

  17. Laparoscopic Procedures Video Appendectomy Running (measuring) the bowel Suturing Nephrectomy

  18. Timing of Each Procedures for Laparoscope and our device

  19. Conclusion • Easier and more intuitive to use than a standard laparoscope. • Joystick operation requires no specialized operator training. • Field of view and access to relevant regions of the body were superior to a standard laparoscope using a single port. • Time to perform procedures was better or equivalent to a standard laparoscope.

  20. Contributions and Future Work • Contributions • Built an insertable camera with Pan/Tilt and integrated LED light source. • Accomplished a series of standard laparoscopic procedures( appendectomy, running (measuring) the bowel, suturing, and nephrectomy) by laparoscopic surgeon using the device. • Future Work • Camera with zoom and auto-focusing capabilities. • Stereo camera in one package. • Function with tool or organ tracking.
