Cover Story: In this article, a reciprocating manipulation method with visual-based force feedback was first proposed to manipulate the catheter to the target position effectively, which can provide enhanced safety considerations for surgeons and avoid the buckling phenomenon of the catheter. Novel objective performance metrics (maximum pull force and force fluctuation) are proposed for enriching the evaluation of vascular interventional surgery technical skills. The in vitro experiments were designed and completed to evaluate the performance of the controlling guidewire and catheter in the pre-training stage. The importance of using visual-based force feedback to improve the safety performance of VIS was verified via our experiments. View this paper
