[2021-08-25] Autumn Academic Seminar of research center was successfully held
Aug. 25, All research staffs, students of our research center attended the meeting and made quarterly academic research progress reports and exchanges respectively. Two invited Ph.D. students shared their research experience and made interactive communications with our graducate students. More
[2021-02-01] Congratulations！Our paper entitled "A Mechanism-image Fusion Approach to Calibration of An Ultrasound-guided Dual-arm Robotic Brachytherapy System" has been published at IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics Journal.
This paper presents a mechanism-image fusion approach to calibration of a US-guided dual-arm robotic brachytherapy system. With this approach, no tracker or complex phantom is needed as the dual-arm robotic system can use one arm as a substitute for tracker and phantom to calibrate the other arm. More
