A Teleoperation Control Method for Vascular Interventional Surgery Robot

Abstract

Minimally invasive vascular interventional surgical robots can effectively improve the safety and accuracy of surgical operations, and reduce the cumulative radiation damage that doctors suffer, which has become the primary trend in the development of vascular interventional surgery. Domestic and foreign research mainly focuses on realizing surgical functions by using a master-slave control scheme to achieve robot control. However, there are still shortcomings in the use of robots to launch remote surgical interventions. Based on our existing surgical robots, we proposed a remote control method by means of a data transfer server, which is characterized by less data transmission and one-way data transmission. Finally, a series of verification experiments were carried out, such as the communication network delay test and packet loss rate test. The experimental results show that this method can meet the needs of remote surgical intervention when network conditions permit. The rapid popularization of 5G communication technology has provided us with great expectations. When 5G communication is popularized and applied, it can be utilized to conduct further tests.
