Contact Force Estimation of Continuum Robots without Embedded Sensors: A Review

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This review surveys methods for estimating contact forces in continuum robots without embedded sensors. It explains why contact force matters, classifies force patterns, and groups existing methods into three approaches based on actuation, deformation, and environment information.

A Novel Milli‐Scale Magnetic Robot Exploiting Rotation for Controlled Magnetic Particles Release

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Delivering magnetic particles can become a game changer in minimally invasive medicine. To cope with this challenge, a magnetically actuated milli‐scale carrier leveraging rotation to perform on‐demand tunable release of magnetic particles across multiple release events is presented.

A Multi‐instrument Recognition and Autonomous Tracking Control Method for Robot‐Assisted Endoscopic Adjustment

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
During lengthy minimally invasive surgeries, fatigue can cause surgeon tremor and poor endoscopic coordination. This study proposes a robot‐assisted endoscopic adjustment system. It employs a lightweight instrument detection model and a hierarchical multiconstraint controller for visual servoing.

European multicentre study on outcome of surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
Some 5861 patients undergoing first‐time surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism were registered in the Eurocrine® database between 2015 and 2018. The use of intraoperative parathyroid hormone measurement decreased the risk of conversion and persistent hypercalcaemia.
