System For Robotic Surgery Training

US Patent:
2009030, Dec 10, 2009
Filed:
Mar 11, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/402303
Inventors:
Khurshid Guru - East Amherst NY, US
Thenkurussi Kesavadas - Clarence Center NY, US
International Classification:
G09B 23/28
US Classification:
434262
Abstract:
A system according to the invention may include a frame, a computer, a display, and two input devices. The frame may be adjustable, may be made from a lightweight material, and may fold for easier portability. The display and the computer may be in communication with each other and each may be attached to the frame. The display may be a binocular display, or may be a touchscreen display. Additional displays may be used. Two input devices may be used to simulate the master console of a surgical robot. The input devices may be articulated armature devices suitable for providing 3D input. The input devices may be attached to the frame in an “upside-down” configuration wherein a base of each input device is affixed to the frame such that a first joint of an arm is below the base. The input devices may be in communication with the computer and may provide positional signals to the computer. The positional signals may correspond to a position of an arm of each input device.

Method And System For Minimally-Invasive Surgery Training

US Patent:
2010028, Nov 11, 2010
Filed:
Mar 12, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/723579
Inventors:
Thenkurussi Kesavadas - Clarence Center NY, US
Khurshid Guru - East Amherst NY, US
International Classification:
G09B 23/28
US Classification:
434262
Abstract:
The present invention may be embodied as a method of minimally-invasive surgery (“MIS”) training wherein a simulator having a display, a computer, and a first input device, is provided. A video of an MIS is displayed on the display, and a first surgical tool is visible in at least a portion of the video. A match zone corresponding to a position on the first surgical tool is determined. A computer-generated virtual surgical tool (“CG tool”) is superimposed on the displayed video. The CG tool is selectively controlled by the first input device. A target position of the CG tool is determined. If the target position is not determined to be within the match zone, further steps may be taken. For example, the video may be paused, a message may be displayed to the operator, or the computer may signal the input device to move to a position such that the target position is within the match zone.

Method And System For Automatic Tool Position Determination For Minimally-Invasive Surgery Training

US Patent:
2013028, Oct 31, 2013
Filed:
May 26, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/806889
Inventors:
Thenkurussi Kesavadas - Clarence Center NY, US
Khurshid Guru - East Amherst NY, US
Assignee:
The Research Foundation for The State University of New York - Amherst NY
HEALTH RESEARCH INC. - Buffalo NY
International Classification:
G09B 5/02, G09B 23/28
US Classification:
434262
Abstract:
The present invention may be embodied as a method of minimally-invasive surgery (“MIS”) training using a video of an MIS comprising the steps of providing a processor, a display, and a first input device. The method comprises the step of processing the video using the processor to determine a location of the first surgical tool in each of the frames, determining whether the configuration of the first input device substantially corresponds to the location of the first surgical tool in each frame of the video while the video is displayed. The present invention may be embodied as a system for MIS training. The system comprises a processor, a communication device, and a first input device in communication with the processor. The processor is programmed perform any or all of the described disclosed methods.

Method And System For Minimally-Invasive Surgery Training Using Tracking Data

US Patent:
2013029, Nov 7, 2013
Filed:
May 26, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/806891
Inventors:
Thenkurussi Kesavadas - Clarence Center NY, US
Khurshid Guru - East Amherst NY, US
Assignee:
The Research Foundation for The State University of New York - Amherst NY
HEALTH RESEARCH INC. - Buffalo NY
International Classification:
G09B 23/28
US Classification:
434262
Abstract:
A system and method for training a person in minimally-invasive surgery (“MIS”) utilizing a video of the MIS. The system comprises a processor, a display, and a first interaction device. The processor programmed to receive the video and to obtain tracking data. The tracking data may correspond to the motion of a tool controller. The tracking data may correspond to motion of a first surgical tool in the video. The processor programmed to calculate motion of the first interaction device corresponding to the tracking data, to display the video, and to cause the first interaction device to move according to the calculated motion. The method comprises receiving the video, obtaining the tracking data, calculating a motion of a first interaction device corresponding to the tracking data, displaying the video, and causing the first interaction device to move according to the calculated motion.
