Comparison of Radiomic Models Based on Different Machine Learning Methods for Predicting Intracerebral Hemorrhage Expansion.

PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to predict hematoma expansion (HE) by radiomic models based on different machine learning methods and determine the best radiomic model through the comparison.

Initial experience with a suprapubic single-port robotic right hemicolectomy in patients with colon cancer.

BACKGROUND: We developed a novel suprapubic single-port robotic right hemicolectomy (spRHC) procedure for patients with right colon cancer using a da Vinci SP Surgical System. The aim of this study was to determine the safety and feasibility of this technique.

Tip estimation approach for concentric tube robots using 2D ultrasound images and kinematic model.

Concentric tube robot (CTR) is an efficient approach for minimally invasive surgery (MIS) and diagnosis due to its small size and high dexterity. To m...

The clinical impact of robot-assisted laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery associated with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery has been performed in various fields, especially in the pelvic cavity. However, little is known abou...

Multicenter Experience in Robot-Assisted Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy - a Comparison of Hybrid and Totally Robot-Assisted Techniques.

BACKGROUND: Oncological esophageal surgery has evolved significantly in the last decades. From open esophagectomy over (hybrid) minimally invasive sur...

Performance optimisation of deep learning models using majority voting algorithm for brain tumour classification.

BACKGROUND: Although biopsy is the gold standard for tumour grading, being invasive, this procedure also proves fatal to the brain. Thus, non-invasive...

Initial experience of Chinese surgical robot "Micro Hand S″-assisted versus open and laparoscopic total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer: Short-term outcomes in a single center.

BACKGROUND: A Chinese surgical robot, Micro Hand S, was introduced for clinical use as a novel robotic platform. This study aimed to comprehensively c...
