| Abstract | This Smart and Connected Health (SCH) award will focus on creating a robotic system for diagnosis of abnormal tissues inside the abdominal cavity. Diseased abdominal organs often present a complex mixture of normal, abnormal but non-cancerous, and cancerous tissues. Existing medical imaging methods fail to offer useful diagnosis due to errors caused by breathing and the limits of imaging resolution and sensitivity. Diagnostic laparoscopy along with tissue biopsies can provide more detailed infor |
