Objective One limitation of the use of robotic catheters is the lack of real-time three-
dimensional (3D) localization and position updating: they are still navigated based on two …

Background One limitation of the remotely steerable robotic catheter (Magellan, Hansen
Medical Inc, Mountain View, Calif) is the lack of real-time 3D localization: it is still being …

Objective Combining three-dimensional (3D) catheter control with electromagnetic (EM)
tracking-based navigation significantly reduced fluoroscopy time and improved robotic …

Purpose To evaluate the accuracy of a 3-dimensional (3D) navigation system using
electromagnetically tracked tools to explore its potential in patients. Methods The 3D …

Background Endovascular procedures are nowadays limited by difficulties arising from the
use of 2D images and are associated with dangerous X‐ray exposure and the injection of …

INTRODUCTION: We describe a novel approach to arterial cannulation using the
StealthStation® Guidance System (Medtronic, USA). This uses electromagnetic technology …

Background In order to reduce fluoroscope usage in endovascular surgery, there is a need
to develop autonomous catheter insertion systems. Methods We propose a system for …

In endovascular interventions, vessels serve as access routes to deep and remote anatomic
regions [1]. Navigation through narrow, fragile, and deformable vessels in endovascular …

Purpose Endovascular intervention is limited by two-dimensional intraoperative imaging and
prolonged procedure times in the presence of complex anatomies. Robotic catheter …

Remote robotic-assisted endovascular interventions require real-time control of the robotic
system to conduct precise device navigation. The delay (latency) between the input …
