Abstract

Medical robotics is a field that combines engineering and artificial intelligence to create robotic systems used in healthcare. This study aims to delve into the exciting field of developing medical-targeted drug delivery systems, which hold immense potential for revolutionizing how we administer therapeutic substances. By precisely delivering drugs to specific sites within the body, these innovative systems offer improved treatment outcomes, reduced side effects, and enhanced patient compliance. Therefore, an image processing algorithm for visible target detection was designed, a system to determine the coordinates of the exact location of identified regions of the target was developed, and a trajectory plan for the robotic arm end effector for precise drug delivery was also designed. The integration of robotic systems into MRI scanners, the development of image processing algorithms, and also real-time feedback control systems are mechatronics-based processes. Medical image navigation technology has many uses in minimally invasive robots, mainly image acquisition techniques such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to acquire equivalent image data; however, medical imaging techniques have inefficient visibility in robotic-assisted surgeries of small and confined incisions. Therefore, image processing methods are applied to precisely regulate the operation’s location and visibility and improve the procedure’s efficacy, accuracy, and safety. To develop an advanced medical-targeted drug delivery system.
