Abstract

We present an evaluation of the accuracy of a system for image guided radical prostatectomy using the daVinci telemanipulator. The system is split into components and ten sources of error identified. The magnitude of three of these error sources; segmentation of bone from MRI, registration to patient using intraoperative ultrasound, and endoscope tracking error is determined experimentally. The remaining errors are estimated from the literature. We demonstrate that the distribution of ultrasound slices used for registration can reduce the system error by up to 0.7mm. Our results show that our system can localise the prostate to within 3.7mm RMS, and that the largest component of the this error is the segmentation of the pelvic bone from MRI.
