    Abstract: A system for endoscopic surgery, comprising a first robotic arm defining the pose of an endoscopic camera, a second robotic arm defining the pose of a surgical end effector, and an irrigation nozzle configured to inject fluid under a predetermined pressure into a preselected tissue region, to generate a cavity at a surgical site. The cavity enables the camera to take images of the features of the surgical site. A controller is used to control both robotic arms, such that the pose of the endoscopic camera and the pose of the surgical end effector are known to the controller. The camera can then acquire intraoperative images of the cavity, such that an endoscopic operation can be performed in the cavity with the surgical end effector guided using the intraoperative images. Anatomic features imaged intraoperatively by the camera can be identified from preoperative images, using image registration.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for monitoring a surgical procedure are provided. A coordinate system of a first robotic arm and a second robotic arm may be co-registered or correlated to each other. One or more poses of an imaging device may be determined to provide real-time intraoperative imaging of a region of interest during a surgical procedure. Anatomical elements may be identified in the real-time images of the region of interest from which a surgical tool should maintain a predetermined distance. The surgical tool may be prevented from approaching the identified anatomical elements by less than a predetermined distance using the co-registration of the coordinate systems.

    Abstract: A system for tracking the position of a surgical tool manipulated by a surgical robotic system, to determine that the tool is correctly positioned and orientated. Miniature 3-D tracking cameras are mounted on the end effector of the robotic system, one viewing markers on the surgical tool, and the other markers attached to the anatomy part being operated on. The initial spatial position and orientation of the surgical tool on the surface of the anatomy part is measured, and the progress of the surgical tool into the anatomic body part is tracked using one of the miniature cameras. The cameras or sensors are close to the surgical region of interest, and all the mechanical and sensor elements necessary for the system operation are mounted within the realm of the robot. The system thus avoids interruption of communication between a remotely positioned navigation camera and the robot or patient.
