Abstract

Epidural procedure can be a challenging skill to learn. Veterinarians must feel how many ligaments they get through before performing the injection in the exact location, relying solely on haptic perception, on a wide range of animal sizes. Force, torque, and position sensors were mounted on a needle to measure an epidural injection procedure. We provide here the data analysis that led to the needle insertion force profile extraction, to be used in procedural haptic simulators.
