Abstract Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is now a widely used modality for providing
multimodal, high-quality soft tissue contrast images with good spatiotemporal resolution but …

Recently, the human-like behavior on the anthropomorphic robot manipulator is increasingly
accomplished by the kinematic model establishing the relationship of an anthropomorphic …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers better visualization for diagnosis, interventional
radiology, and surgery from other imaging modalities without X-ray exposure. Medical robots …

Compatibility of mechatronic devices with the MR environment has been a very challenging
engineering task. After over a decade of developments, we report the successful translation …

This paper introduces a robotic manipulator to realize robot-assisted intracardiac
catheterization in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) environment. MRI can offer high …

In this letter, we present an intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided robot
for bilateral stereotactic procedures. Its compact design enables robot's operation within the …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guided intervention has drawn increasing attention over
the last decade. It is accredited to the capability of monitoring any physiological change of …

In this paper, we show that magnetic resonance (MR) safe pneumatic stepper motors can be
constructed using rapid prototy** techniques such as 3-D printing and laser-cutting. The …

This paper presents the design, modeling and experimental evaluation of a magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI)-compatible concentric tube continuum robotic system. This system …

The development of stereotaxy can be dated back 100 years. However, most stereotactic
neurosurgery still relies on the workflow established about half a century ago. With the …
