Abstract

Background

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is one of the deadliest forms of stroke in the USA. Conventional surgical techniques such as craniotomy or stereotactic aspiration disrupt a large volume of healthy brain tissue in their attempts to reach the surgical site. Consequently, the surviving patients suffer from debilitating complications.

Methods

We fabricated a novel MR-conditional steerable needle robot for ICH treatment. The robot system is powered by a custom-designed high power and low-cost pneumatic motor. We tested the robot’s targeting accuracy and MR-conditionality performance, and performed phantom evacuation experiment under MR image guidance.

Results

Experiments demonstrate that the robotic hardware is MR-conditional; the robot has the targeting accuracy of 1.26 ± 1.22 mm in bench-top tests. With real-time MRI guidance, the robot successfully reached the desired target and evacuated an 11.3 ml phantom hematoma in 9 min.

Conclusion

MRI-guided steerable needle robotic system is a potentially feasible approach for ICH treatment by providing accurate needle guidance and intraoperative surgical outcome evaluation.
