In interventional surgery, the manual operation of the catheter is not accurate. It is necessary to operate the catheter skillfully and effectively to protect the surgeon from radiation injury. The purpose of this paper is to design a new robot catheter operating system, which can help surgeons to complete the operation with high mechanical precision. On the basis of the original mechanical structure—real catheter, the operation information of the main end operator is collected. After the information is collected, the control algorithm of the system is improved, and the BP neural network is combined with the traditional PID controller to adjust the PID control parameters more effectively and intelligently so that the motor can reflect the output of the controller better and faster. The feasibility and superiority of the BP neural network PID controller are verified by simulation experiments.
