Several key technologies are developed thanks to SPIRITS for interventional radiology and more generally for hybrid image-guided surgery.

  • It is proposed to combine 3D multimaterial polymer printing with hydraulic actuation and 3D printing of nitinol elements. All offer excellent compatibility with imaging devices. Their combination, not yet considered in the literature will allow the design of new robotic structures and actuation means.
  • It is proposed to combine design of needles and of needle driving system to compensate needle deflections and to make possible trajectory adjustment
  • It is proposed to develop remote manipulation capability with haptic feedback using tactile feedback with sensory substitution
