Why the study?
Does a Smith predictor improve heart motion tracking accuracy in ultrasound-guided teleoperated beating-heart surgery?
Does a Smith predictor improve heart motion tracking accuracy in ultrasound-guided teleoperated beating-heart surgery?
A Smith predictor can compensate for ultrasound imaging delays in teleoperated beating-heart surgery, significantly improving motion tracking accuracy and potentially reducing the risk of tissue injury.
