Latest AI and machine learning research in surgery for healthcare professionals.
BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic, robot-assisted, and transanal total mesorectal excision are the minimally invasive techniques used most for rectal cancer surgery. Because data regarding oncologic results are lacking, this study aimed to compare these three techniques while taking the learning curve into account.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Hematoma volume (HV) is a significant diagnosis for determining the clinical stage and therapeutic approach for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The aim of this study is to develop a robust deep learning segmentation method for the fast and accurate HV analysis using computed tomography.
PURPOSE: Volumetric and health assessment of the liver is crucial to avoid poor post-operative outcomes following liver resection surgery. No current ...
In otolaryngologic surgery, more and more robots are being studied to meet the clinical needs of operating rooms. However, to help design and optimize...
INTRODUCTION: To clarify the safety and efficacy of en bloc simultaneous robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) and laparoscopic nephroureterectomy ...
Sketching is a universal communication tool that, despite its simplicity, is able to efficiently express a large variety of concepts and, in some limi...
In contrast to traditional large-scale robots, which require complicated mechanical joints and material rigidity, microrobots made of soft materials h...
Both robotic surgery and head-down tilt increase intracranial pressure by impairing venous blood outflow. Prostatectomy is commonly performed in elder...
The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and preliminary outcomes of using a postauricular-groove approach without endoscopic assistance for ...
PURPOSE: To systematically review studies comparing the perioperative outcomes of intracorporeal robot-assisted radical cystectomy (iRARC) and open ra...
. To identify a new electrophysiological feature characterising the epileptic seizures, which is commonly observed in different types of epilepsy.. We...
The exponential increase in the volume and complexity of healthcare data presents new challenges to researchers and clinicians in analysis and interpr...
Esophagectomy is a high-risk operation, regardless of technique. Minimally invasive transthoracic esophagectomy could reduce length of stay and pulmon...
BACKGROUND: The robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RMIS) has developed rapidly in recent years, requiring highly articulated instruments to en...
Computations of placebo effects are essential in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for separating the specific effects of treatments from unspecific...
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has improved surgical access to the foregut. While the benefits of MIS versus open surgery are well accepted, the rel...
In pituitary adenomas (PAs), the use of postoperative steroid supplementation remains controversial, as it reduces peritumoral edema and sinonasal c...
BACKGROUND: Retained surgical items are a serious human error. Surgical sponges account for 70% of retained surgical items. To prevent retained surgic...
INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted laparoscopic (RAL) urologic surgery is widely used in pediatric patients, though less commonly in infants. There are smal...
