Abstract

The goal of this work was to develop a virtual reality simulator for minimal invasive micro robotic neurosurgery, focusing on the case of transsphenoidal approach pituitary gland tumor resection. Particularly we work on the force feedback, collision avoidance and dynamic motion scaling. The main challenges in our work were the real time collision detection and the deformation of the soft tissues.
