Abstract: A station for tomotactic-guided biopsy in prone includes a table with an aperture, and a tomosynthesis imaging system. A biopsy gun can be mounted on a stage arm assembly disposed below the table. The imaging system and stage arm assembly can be independently rotated and linearly repositioned in one or more dimensions, thereby allowing the tomotactic scan axis to be located relative to a breast being imaged.

Abstract: Specimen collectors configured for use with robotic medical systems are described herein. A robotic medical system can include a medical instrument that can be inserted into a patient to capture a specimen. A robotic manipulator can be engaged with the medical instrument and configured to operate the medical instrument. A sterile barrier can be used to separate a sterile field containing the medical instrument from a non-sterile field containing the robotic manipulator. A specimen collector can include a receptacle portion in the sterile field and configured to receive the specimen when the distal end of the medical instrument is withdrawn from the patient and a connector coupled to the receptacle portion and configured to attach to the robotic medical system. The robotic system can deposit the specimen in the receptacle portion.

Abstract: Systems and methods can be used endoscopically to treat tumors in mediastinal, abdominal, and peri-rectal spaces. For example, this document describes systems and methods for endoscopic delivery of non-thermal pulsed electrical field or electroporation to such tumors. In addition, the systems and methods prime the immune system by re-introducing obtained and processed tissue or aspirates back to the local tumor environment after ex-vivo denaturing and emulsification of the tumor tissue or other immune enhancing substances such a monoclonal or multifunctional antibodies. The re-introduction of the processed tumor cells or immune enhancing substances will create an antigenic primed environment to the enhanced immune response generated by the pulsed electrical field. This will harness the power of the immune system as an ablative modality to the local tumor while systemically targeting metastatic disease.

Abstract: A medical device comprises an elongate sheath comprising a rigid distal portion and a flexible proximal portion and defining a first lumen. The medical device further comprises an elongate instrument that fits within the lumen. The elongate instrument comprises a flexible proximal section and a rigid distal section. The rigid distal portion of the sheath is at least as long as the rigid distal section of the instrument. In a non-extended condition of the instrument, the distal section of the instrument is entirely within the distal portion of the sheath. In an extended condition of the instrument when the instrument is distally extended within the lumen of the sheath, at least a portion of the distal section of the instrument is outside of the distal portion of the sheath and a portion of the proximal section of the instrument is within the distal portion of the sheath.

Abstract: A hand-held ultrasound system includes integrated electronics within an ergonomic housing. The electronics includes control circuitry, beamforming and circuitry transducer drive circuitry. The electronics communicate with a host computer using an industry standard high speed serial bus. The ultrasonic imaging system is operable on a standard, commercially available, user computing device without specific hardware modifications, and is adapted to interface with an external application without modification to the ultrasonic imaging system to allow a user to gather ultrasonic data on a standard user computing device such as a PC, and employ the data so gathered via an independent external application without requiring a custom system, expensive hardware modifications, or system rebuilds. An integrated interface program allows such ultrasonic data to be invoked by a variety of such external applications having access to the integrated interface program via a standard, predetermined platform such as visual basic or c++.

Abstract: A method of operating an end effector, the end effector including opposing first and second jaws, a distal clevis defining an inner pulley and having a first axle that rotatably mounts the first and second jaws to the distal clevis, a proximal clevis having a second axle that rotatably mounts the distal clevis to the proximal clevis, a plurality of drive cables extending to the end effector, and a power axle cable mounted to the distal clevis at the inner pulley. The method further includes moving one or more of the plurality of drive cables and thereby causing the end effector to articulate about a first pivot axis extending through the first axle, and moving the power axle cable and thereby pivoting the end effector about a second pivot axis extending through the second axle and perpendicular to the first pivot axis.
