Real-time 3D US–CT fusion-based semi-automatic puncture robot system: clinical evaluation
Although the five participants had different CP classifications and the derived US images exhibited individual variability, all centroid distances satisfied the ablation margin of 5.00 mm considered in PRFA, suggesting the potential accuracy and utility of the robotic system for puncture navigation. Additionally, the results suggested the potential generalization performance of the AI model trained with data acquired according to the robotic system's workflow.
