Abstract:
Concentric tube robots (CTRs) are a promising prospect for minimally invasive surgery due to their inherent compliance and ability to navigate in constrained environments. Existing mechanics-based kinematic models typically neglect friction, clearance, and torsion between each pair of contacting tubes, leading to large positioning errors in medical applications. In this paper, an improved kinematic modeling method is developed. The effect of clearance on tip position during concentric tube assembly is compensated by the database method. The new kinematic model is mechanic-based, and the impact

Abstract:
Concentric tube robots offer the capability of follow-the-leader motion, which is desirable when navigating in cluttered environments, such as in minimally invasive surgery or in-situ inspections. The follow-the-leader capabilities identified in the existing literature, however, are limited to trajectories with piecewise constant-curvature segments or piecewise helical segments. A complete study of follow-the-leader kinematics is, therefore, relevant to determine the full potential of these robots, and clarify an open question. In this paper, a general analysis of follow-the-leader motion is p

Abstract:
In the development of telemanipulated surgical robots, a class of continuum robots known as concentric tube robots has drawn particular interest for clinical applications in which space is a major limitation. One such application is transnasal surgery, which is used to access surgical sites in the sinuses and at the skull base. Current techniques for performing these procedures require surgeons to maneuver multiple rigid tools through the narrow confines of the nasal passages, leaving them with limited dexterity at the surgical site. In this article, we present a complete robotic system for tr

Abstract:
Lung cancer is the most deadly form of cancer in part because of the challenges associated with accessing nodules for diagnosis and therapy. Transoral access is preferred to percutaneous access since it has a lower risk of lung collapse, yet many sites are currently unreachable transorally due to limitations with current bronchoscopic instruments. Toward this end, we present a new robotic system for image-guided trans-bronchoscopic lung access. The system uses a bronchoscope to navigate in the airway and bronchial tubes to a site near the desired target, a concentric tube robot to move through

Abstract:
Inverse kinematics (IK) of concentric tube continuum robots (CTRs) is associated with two main problems. First, the robot model (e.g., the relationship between the configuration space parameters and the robot end-effector) is not linear. Second, multiple solutions for the IK are available. This paper presents a general approach to solve the IK of CTRs in the presence of constrained environments. It is assumed that the distal tube of the CTR is inserted into a cavity while its proximal end is placed inside a tube resembling the vessel enabling the entry to the organ cavity.

Abstract:
Concentric tube robots (CTRs) increase the dexterity of surgical instruments while maintaining small instrument diameters. The tip is bent by rotating and sliding the individual, nested tubes without the need for additional tendons. However, this design may become unstable under certain conditions due to the torsional wind- up created by rotating the tubes, which is at some point released by a sudden snapping movement. Several groups have demonstrated techniques to reduce snapping [1], [2], [3], [4]. Mostly, this was achieved through anisotropic cut-outs along the tubes. Still, some regions of

Concentric tube robots (CTR) and notched wrists are two technologies that have been investigated for medical applications. CTRs consist of pre-curved super-elastic tubes that are nested concentrically, and are linearly translated and axially rotated with respect to one another for movement. Separately, notched wrists are tubular instruments that can achieve large bending angles via notches that are cut into the tube and shortening actua- tion cables that run along their length. These two robotic tools have been investigated independently, but very few studies have explored combining them [1],
