Real-Time Intraoperative Surgical Guidance System in the da Vinci Surgical Robot Based on Transrectal Ultrasound/Photoacoustic Imaging With Photoacoustic Markers: An Ex Vivo Demonstration
RA-L 2023
This paper introduces the first integrated real-time intraoperative surgical guidance system, in which an endoscope camera of da Vinci surgical robot and a transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) transducer are co-registered using photoacoustic markers that are detected in both fluorescence (FL) and photoacou
