The Flux One Magnetic Navigation System: A Preliminary Assessment for Stent Implantation

Christoff M. Heunis, Bruno Silva, Giulia Sereni, Martijn C. W. Lam, Besma Belakhal, Arold Gaborit +3
RA-L 2023

Minimally-invasive surgery (MIS) for stent implantation is a complex procedure requiring specialized instruments. It often leads to prolonged patient recovery, and interrupted operations due to incorrect instrument selection and complex anatomy. This study presents a novel magnetic navigation system

The ARMM System - Autonomous Steering of Magnetically-Actuated Catheters: Towards Endovascular Applications

Christoff M. Heunis, Yannik P. Wotte, Jakub Sikorski, Guilherme Phillips Furtado, Sarthak Misra
RA-L 2020

Positioning conventional endovascular catheters is not without risk, and there is a multitude of complications that are associated with their use in manual surgical interventions. By utilizing surgical manipulators, the efficacy of remote-controlled catheters can be investigated in vivo. However, te

Reconstructing Endovascular Catheter Interaction Forces in 3D using Multicore Optical Shape Sensors

Christoff M. Heunis, Vincenza Belfiore, Marilena Vendittelli, Sarthak Misra
IROS 2019poster

Catheterization instruments are increasingly being improved to accurately diagnose and treat cardiovascular conditions. However, current catheter systems provide limited information about the shape of the catheter and tissue-instrument interaction forces during an intervention. Furthermore, relying…
