A Multimodality Imaging-compatible Insertion Robot with A Respiratory Motion Calibration Module Designed for Ablation of Liver Tumors: A Preclinical Study.

CONCLUSION: The multimodality imaging-compatible insertion robot with a respiratory motion calibration module designed for ablation of liver tumors could increase the insertion accuracy and ablation efficacy, and minimize the influence of the physicians' experience. The ablation procedure could be more comfortable with less stress with the application of the robot. PMID: 29566561 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
