An Observer-Based Fusion Method Using Multicore Optical Shape Sensors and Ultrasound Images for Magnetically-Actuated Catheters

Alper Denasi, Fouzia Khan, Klaas Jelmer Boskma, Mert Kaya, Christoph Hennersperger, Rüdiger Göbl +3

ICRA 2018poster

Minimally invasive surgery involves using flexible medical instruments such as endoscopes and catheters. Magnetically actuated catheters can provide improved steering precision over conventional catheters. However, besides the actuation method, an accurate tip position is required for precise contro…

Towards MRI-guided flexible needle steering using fiber Bragg grating-based tip tracking

Pedro Moreira, Klaas Jelmer Boskma, Sarthak Misra

ICRA 2017poster

The use of magnetic resonance (MR) images for needle-based interventions offers several advantages over other types of imaging modalities (e.g., high tissue contrast and no radiation). However, MR-guided interventions face challenges related to electromagnetic compatibility of medical devices and re…
