DEI Conference 2026 - Zagreb
We are proud to announce that our poster, Motion Compensation for Real-Time Ultrasound Scanning in Robotically Assisted Prostate Biopsy Procedures, has been accepted for presentation at the University Computing Centre SRCE conference Srce DEI 2026.
The event, organized by the University Computing Centre of the University of Zagreb, will take place on 28-29 April 2026 in Zagreb and brings together researchers, engineers, educators, and digital infrastructure experts from across Croatia and beyond.
Our accepted poster presents ongoing research focused on improving the reliability of robotically assisted prostate biopsy procedures through real-time motion compensation during ultrasound scanning. Because patient or organ movement can affect imaging accuracy during intervention, maintaining a stable relative position between the ultrasound probe and the prostate is essential for precise targeting.
To address this challenge, we developed an experimental robotic setup in which a collaborative robotic arm performs autonomous ultrasound scanning, while a second robotic platform simulates patient motion. The system continuously compensates for movement, helping preserve scan consistency and supporting robust 3D prostate reconstruction during the procedure. This approach has the potential to enhance biopsy precision, reduce operator dependency, and improve workflow efficiency.
Presenting this work at Srce DEI 2026 is an excellent opportunity to share results with the wider scientific and technical community, exchange ideas, and discuss future applications of robotics and medical imaging in healthcare. We look forward to engaging with conference participants and showcasing the progress of our research.
