In one aspect, the present invention provides a method of interacting with simulated three-dimensional objects, the method including the steps of the identification of three-dimensional objects from volume images; the association of physical properties with identified objects said properties including at least visual and haptic properties of the identified objects; and incorporating said identified objects and associated physical properties into a system including at least one visual interface device and at least one haptic interface device thus enabling the system to simulate visual and haptic properties of the identified objects, or any part thereof, to a human user interacting with the simulated three-dimensional objects, or any part thereof, said interaction including the generation of signals by the system for transmission to the at least one visual interface device in accordance with the physical properties associated with the objects and the reception of signals from the least one haptic interface device in accordance with user requests.
摘要:
A laparoscopic liver resection device is described. The device combines the Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) technology with a cutting mechanism, a blood-flow sensor and a flexible actuation mechanism to simultaneously coagulate and cut the liver tissue and detect the presence of blood flow to confirm avascularity. The present invention eliminates the risk of excess bleeding due to cutting too deep and reduces recovery time and the time spent on re-coagulation of coagulated areas, thereby shortening duration of surgery. Also embodiments prevent excess ablation by stopping ablation activity on the target tissue as soon as insufficient or no blood flow in the target tissue is detected. Thus a closed loop control for a bloodless tissue/organ division method is provided.

The present disclosure includes a bio-absorbable wound closure clip for wound closure without crushing of the tissue being closed. The bio-absorbable wound closure clip can be used in minimal access surgery as well as on tissue, such as mucosal tissue, where tactile feedback is reduced. Representative surgical instruments for applying the bio-absorbable wound closure clip and methods of using the same are also provided herein.
