Journal ArticleDOI
A Telerobotic System for Transnasal Surgery
Jessica Burgner,D. Caleb Rucker,Hunter B. Gilbert,Philip J. Swaney,Paul T. Russell,Kyle D. Weaver,Robert J. Webster +6 more
TL;DR: The medical motivation for an endonasal surgical robot featuring concentric tube manipulators is provided, and the model-based design and teleoperation methods, as well as a complete system incorporating image guidance are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Debulking From Within: A Robotic Steerable Cannula for Intracerebral Hemorrhage Evacuation
TL;DR: This work proposes a less invasive needle-based approach in which the clot is debulked from within using a superelastic, precurved aspiration cannula that is deployed from a needle.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A bimanual teleoperated system for endonasal skull base surgery
Jessica Burgner,Philip J. Swaney,D. Caleb Rucker,Hunter B. Gilbert,Scott T. Nill,Paul T. Russell,Kyle D. Weaver,Robert J. Webster +7 more
TL;DR: Th thin, “tentacle-like” robotic tools with shafts constructed from concentric tube robots, and an actuation unit designed to robotically control them in a teleoperated setting are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
A method to track cortical surface deformations using a laser range scanner
Tuhin K. Sinha,Benoit M. Dawant,Valerie Duay,David M. Cash,Robert J. Weil,Reid C. Thompson,Kyle D. Weaver,Michael I. Miga +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that a LRS is an effective tool for tracking brain surface shift during neurosurgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temporal bone encephalocele and cerebrospinal fluid fistula repair utilizing the middle cranial fossa or combined mastoid–middle cranial fossa approach
Matthew L. Carlson,William R. Copeland,Colin L. W. Driscoll,Michael J. Link,David S. Haynes,Reid C. Thompson,Kyle D. Weaver,George B. Wanna +7 more
TL;DR: Patients with temporal bone encephalocele and CSFF commonly present with persistent otorrhea and conductive hearing loss mimicking chronic middle ear disease, which likely contributes to a delay in diagnosis and a high prevalence of obesity among this patient population.
