Abstract
Methods and systems for determining and maintaining a center of rotation are provided. A center of rotation may be determined based on first information about a robotic region of interest of a robot and second information about a patient region of interest. An operating table having multiple degrees of freedom may be caused to rotate about the center of rotation from a first position to a second position. A control system may be caused to control the robot based on the operating table being in the second position.
Claims20
An operating table control system comprising:
- a memory storing instructions;
- and
- a processor configured to execute the instructions, the instructions causing the processor to:
- determine, based on first information about a robotic region of interest of a robot and second information about a patient region of interest, a center of rotation,
- cause an operating table having multiple degrees of freedom to rotate about the center of rotation from a first position to a second position, and
- control the robot based on the operating table being in the second position.
A method for determining and maintaining a center of rotation comprising:
- determining, based on first information about a robotic region of interest of a robot and second information about a patient region of interest, a center of rotation;
- causing an operating table having multiple degrees of freedom to rotate about the center of rotation from a first position to a second position;
- and
- causing a control system to control the robot based on the operating table being in the second position.
A method determining and maintaining a plurality of centers of rotation comprising:
- determining a first center of rotation based on first information about a robotic region of interest and second information about a first patient region of interest;
- determining a second center of rotation based on the first information and third information about a second patient region of interest;
- causing an operating table having multiple degrees of freedom to rotate about the first center of rotation from a first position to a second position;
- causing a control system to control the robot based on the operating table being in the second position;
- causing the operating table to move to a third position to position the second center of rotation within the robotic region of interest;
- and
- causing the control system to control the robot based on the operating table being in the third position.
