Abstract

Techniques discussed herein relate to controlling robotic components to move medical instruments and tools configured to be advanced through the medical instruments. For example, a system can include a medical instrument with a working channel, a first robotic component configured to control movement of the medical instrument, and a second robotic component configured to control movement of a tool through the working channel. The first robotic component or the second robotic component can be configured to maintain a position of the tool while the medical instrument moves.

Claims (39)

1. A method comprising:

controlling a first robotic component to advance a medical instrument into a cavity of a patient, the first robotic component being coupled to the medical instrument, the medical instrument including a working channel;

controlling a second robotic component to advance a tool through the working channel and position a distal end of the tool at a position within the cavity, the second robotic component being coupled to a proximal end of the tool; and

while maintaining the distal end of the tool at the position, controlling the first robotic component to translate the medical instrument along a longitudinal axis of the medical instrument.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein controlling the first robotic component to translate the medical instrument includes controlling the first robotic component to advance the medical instrument.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the tool includes a basket at the distal end of the tool.

4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising:

while maintaining the distal end of the tool at the position, collapsing the basket to capture an object within the cavity.

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

retracting the basket into a sheath associated with the medical instrument.

6. The method of claim 3 , wherein the tool includes one or more pull wires for opening, closing, or positioning the basket.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the distal end of the tool includes a grasper.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the tool includes a laser.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

fragmenting, using the tool, an object within the cavity into fragmented pieces;

inserting a medical instrument into the cavity percutaneously; and

removing the fragmented pieces of the object from the cavity using the medical instrument.

10. A system comprising:

a medical instrument including a working channel;

a first robotic component configured to couple to the medical instrument and advance the medical instrument into a cavity; and

a second robotic component configured to:

advance a tool through the working channel of the medical instrument and position a distal end of the tool at a position within the cavity; and

wherein at least one of the first robotic component or the second robotic component is further configured to:

maintain the distal end of the tool at the position while translating the medical instrument along a longitudinal axis of the medical instrument.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein translating the medical instrument includes advancing the medical instrument.

12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the distal end of the tool includes a basket.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein at least one of the first robotic component or the second robotic component is further configured to:

collapse the basket to capture an object within the cavity while maintaining the distal end of the tool at the position.

14. The system of claim 13 , wherein at least one of the first robotic component or the second robotic component is further configured to:

retract the basket into a sheath associated with the medical instrument.

15. The system of claim 12 , wherein the tool includes one or more pull wires for opening, closing, or positioning the basket.

16. The system of claim 10 , wherein the distal end of the tool includes a grasper.

17. The system of claim 10 , wherein the medical instrument is an endoscope.

18. The system of claim 10 , wherein the first robotic component is a first robotic arm that includes a first instrument device manipulator configured to control movement of the medical instrument and the second robotic component is a second robotic arm that includes a second instrument device manipulator configured to control the tool.

19. The system of claim 10 , wherein the medical instrument includes a sensor configured to provide data indicating a position of the distal end of the medical instrument;

wherein the system further comprises:

a display configured to display an indicator of the position of the distal end of the medical instrument and move the indicator as the medical instrument is translated along the longitudinal axis of the medical instrument.

20. The system of claim 10 , wherein at least one of the first robotic component or the second robotic component is further configured to:

use the tool to fragment an object within the cavity into pieces that are removed from the cavity with a medical instrument inserted into the cavity percutaneously.
