Dr. Siyang Zuo

Imperial College London

Dr Siyang Zuo is working on developing advanced medical robotics and instruments for Minimally Invasive Surgery, aiming to develop novel device and instrument to assist physicians to conduct minimally invasive. His interests include medical robotics and instruments, image-guided surgery, computer assisted surgery, and the fusion of these techniques for minimally invasive precision diagnosis and therapy.

Prior to joining the Hamlyn Centre for Robotic Surgery at Imperial College London, he worked as a Research Assistant at the Graduate School of Information Science and Technology, University of Tokyo. His research focus was developing a shape lockable Outer Sheath device for minimally invasive surgery.

Dr Siyang Zuo received his Ph.D and M.E. degree in Mechano-Informatics from the University of Tokyo, Japan, in 2013 and 2009 respectively. He received his B.S. degree in mechanical engineering from Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan, in 2007. He had one year working experience in product engineer at Olympus Medical Systems Corporation. He was part of the team that started up the following generation endoscope, and responsible for designing of transnasal endoscope and new technologies for future generations of endoscope products.

报告摘要：

Computer-integrated interventional systems combine innovative algorithms, robotic devices, imaging systems, sensors, and human-machine interfaces to work cooperatively with surgeons in the planning and execution of surgery and other interventional procedures. To address the access and stability problems in SPA and NOTES, we developed a novel device called rigid–flexible outer sheath. This sheath can be switched between flexible and rigid modes by a novel pneumatic shape-locking mechanism, and it has a double curvature structure that enables it to flex in four directions at the distal end and three directions on the rigid–flexible shaft. We also developed a novel robotic scanning device to perform automated scanning with a fibre bundle endomicroscope probe to expand the effective imaging area. By extending human surgeons’ ability to plan and carry out surgical interventions more accurately and less invasively, I am focusing on address a vital need to greatly reduce costs, improve clinical outcomes, and improve the efficiency of health care delivery. This talk will describe my past and emerging research themes in design of smart robotic device for minimally invasive surgery.
