 Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)

Focused Ultrasound Therapy Using Robotic Approaches (FUTURA) aims at creating an innovative multi-robotic platform for non-invasive interventions. The project addresses all specific issues necessary for a concrete and effective transfer of robotic technologies into operating rooms. The robotic platform is expected to operate in an unstructured and extremely critical environment; perception capabilities and understanding will be augmented by merging external sensors and internal control strategies. FUTURA will address explicitly the topics of the call, including robot co-operation and collaboration, and robot interaction both with medical doctors and patients.nFocused Ultrasound Surgery (FUS) is the ideal benchmark for FUTURA. While its medical effectiveness has been already demonstrated, limitations in accuracy, precision, repeatability and a strong reliance on medical skills hamper its spread diffusion into routine clinical applications.nFUTURA will address all these issues by integrating cognitive processes in the operational workflow, all blended with state-of-the-art, flexible and safe instruments and techniques for therapy planning, delivery and monitoring.nThe Consortium ensures that all the required capabilities are fully covered; its structure has been chosen to be a nice blend of excellent universities and solid and highly motivated SMEs, already active in the field of innovative therapy solutions or desiring to enlarge their market potential in high added-value fields.nFUTURA efforts will contribute to maintain the EU leadership in high-impact and high-level research. Expected results aim at setting in constantly growing market niches, such as robotic surgery, ultrasound ablators and image guided therapy.
