Abstract | This paper proposes a novel approach for the identification of tissue properties in-vivo using a force sensitive wheeled probe. The purpose of such a device is to compensate a surgeon for a portion of the loss of haptic and tactile feedback experienced during robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery. Initially, a testing facility for validating the concept ex-vivo was developed and used to characterize two different testing modalities - static (1-DOF) tissue indentation and rolling (2-DOF) tissue indentation. As part of the static indentation experiments a mathematical model was developed to classify tissue condition based on changes in mechanical response. The purpose of the rolling indentation tests was to detect tissue abnormalities, such as tumors, which are difficult to isolate under static testing conditions. During such tests, the test-rig was capable of detecting simulated miniature buried masses at depths of 12mm. Based on these experiments a portable device capable of carrying out similar tests in-vivo was developed. The device was designed to be operated through a trocar port and its key feature is the ability to transition between static indentation and rolling indentation modalities without retracting and changing the tool. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
