Design and analysis of a fiber-optic sensing system for shape reconstruction of a minimally invasive surgical needle
Abstract This paper presents the performance analysis of the system for real-time reconstruction of the shape of the rigid medical needle used for minimally invasive surgeries. The system is based on four optical fibers glued along the needle at 90 degrees from each other to measure distributed stra...
