Title
Intraoperative Tissue Young's Modulus Identification During Needle Insertion Using a Laterally Actuated Needle.
Abstract
Needle insertion is a common minimally invasive medical procedure used for therapy and diagnosis. Among the therapeutic procedures is prostate brachytherapy, during which needle insertion is applied to implant radioactive seeds within the prostate. During insertion, the needle tends to deflect from a desired straight path, thus causing misplacement of the seeds. While currently the needle is steer...
