Latest AI and machine learning research in surgery for healthcare professionals.
Classification systems such as ICD-10 for diagnoses or the Swiss Operation Classification System (CHOP) for procedure classification in the clinical treatment are essential for clinical management and information exchange. Traditionally, classification codes are assigned manually or by systems that rely upon concept-based or rule-based classification methods. Such methods can reach their limit eas...
Accurate surgery duration estimation is necessary for optimal OR planning, which plays an important role in patient comfort and safety as well as resource optimization. It is, however, challenging to preoperatively predict surgery duration since it varies significantly depending on the patient condition, surgeon skills, and intraoperative situation. In this paper, we propose a deep learning pipeli...
