Abstract

Minimally invasive surgery has a smaller incision area than traditional open surgery, which can greatly reduce damage to the human body and improve the utilization of medical devices. However, minimally invasive surgery also has disadvantages such as limited flexibility and operational characteristics. The interactive minimally invasive surgical robot system not only improves the stability, safety, and accuracy of minimally invasive surgery but also introduces force feedback in controlling the surgical robot, which is a new development direction in the field of minimally invasive surgery. This paper reviews the development status of interactive minimally invasive surgical robotic systems and key technologies to achieve human-robot interaction and finally provides an outlook and summary of its development. Fuzzy theory and reinforcement learning are introduced into the parameter adjustment process of the variable guide control model, and a human-robot interaction method for minimally invasive surgical robot posture adjustment is proposed.
