Device and method for a medical intervention
The invention relates to a device and a method for a medical intervention on a patient. The device provided for carrying out the method comprises a medical instrument that is to be introduced into a moving body region of the patient, a robot which has a plurality of degrees of freedom of movement and on which the medical instrument can be disposed for guiding, and means for recording the movement of the body region, wherein the medical instrument can be introduced into the body region of the patient by means of the robot taking into account the movement of the body region and guided in the direction of a target tissue in the body of the patient.
1. A device for a medical intervention, comprising
a robot having a plurality of degrees of freedom of movement;
a recording device that records a movement of a moving body region of a patient; and
a medical instrument disposed on the robot that is to be introduced into the moving body region by the robot taking into account the movement of the body region, such that the moving body region is essentially stationary relative to the medical instrument as the medical instrument is guided in a direction of a target tissue in the moving body region,
wherein the robot comprises a sensor that measures a feeding force of the medical instrument during the intervention.
2. The device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a unit for planning the intervention.
3. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the robot guides the medical instrument based on image information of the moving body region.
4. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the recording device comprises:
a position tracking system comprising:
a detectable sensor that is attached to a body surface of the patient, and
a camera that records the movement of the moving body region;
a scanning unit that scans the body region with a laser beam;
a processor that calculates the movement of the moving body region based on an anatomical image of the moving body region;
a respiratory belt;
a respirator; and
an anesthesia ventilator.
5. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein further comprising a device that generates a movement curve of the moving body region based on the movement of the moving body region.
6. The device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the robot moves relative to the moving body region and guides the medical instrument based on the movement curve and the medical instrument moves synchronously with the moving body region.
7. The device as claimed in claim 5 , further comprising an adjustable patient positioning plate on which the patient is placed, wherein the patient positioning plate is adjusted relative to the medical instrument based on the movement curve so that the medical instrument and the moving body region are stationary relative to each other.
8. The device as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the patient positioning plate is disposed on a robot arm of a second robot.
9. The device as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the robot is arranged on the patient positioning plate.
10. The device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising an imaging device that generates an image information of an inside of the moving body region during the intervention.
11. The device as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the imaging device is an x-ray device.
12. The device as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the robot is arranged on the imaging device.
13. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the medical instrument is a biopsy needle.
14. The device as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the medical instrument comprises a sensor that determines a position of a distal end of the medical instrument in the moving body region, and
wherein the sensor is an electromagnetic sensor.
15. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the robot is an articulated-arm robot having at least four degrees of freedom of movement.
16. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the robot comprises a separate stand that disposes the robot on a floor, on a ceiling, or on a wall.
17. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a visual or an audible warning signal is output when the feeding force exceeds a first limit value.
18. The device as claimed in claim 17 , wherein the medical instrument is prevented from further advancing when the feeding force exceeds a second limit value.
19. A method for performing a medical intervention, comprising:
providing a robot having a plurality of degrees of freedom of movement;
disposing a medical instrument on the robot;
recording a movement of a moving body region of a patient;
introducing the medical instrument into the moving body region by the robot taking into account the movement of the moving body region; and
guiding the medical instrument in the moving body region by the robot in a direction of a target tissue,
wherein the robot comprises a sensor that measures a feeding force of the medical instrument during the intervention.
