Abstract :
The aim of this study is to develop a surgical navigation system applied to drilling. The System combines three phases, including: (i) Immersive handheld of force feedback device. (ii) Three-dimensional model for the visual processing of medical images. (iii) Stable grip of the robotic arm, which we transform and overlap the medical imaging and the spatial coordinates of the force feedback device in order to enhance the accuracy of the robotic arm. The surgical navigation system provides a remote user interface that surgeons can make both the preoperative surgical planning and simulation drilling path. Furthermore, the system will control the robotic arm precisely to reach the affected area for drilling operations and avoid touching other important organization of patient to reduce the damage. To sum up, we hope to develop the surgical navigation system that can make the drilling surgical treatment more safe and reliable.
