Abstract
We have been studying the technologizing and digitalizing skills of the medical professionals in the medical diagnostics and therapeutics. The concept of technologizing and digitalizing medical skills involves extracting functions in medical professional skills and reconstructing and implementing these extracted functions in the mechanisms, controllers, and image-processing algorithms of the medical support system. In this paper, we focus on the kidney stone extraction skills of medical professionals by utilizing robot vision technology, and discuss a methodology for technologizing and digitalizing medical diagnostic and therapeutic skills for a non-invasive ultrasound theragnostic system.
