Latest AI and machine learning research in surgery for healthcare professionals.
OJECTIVE: Ultrasound guided central venous catheterization (CVC) is a common surgical procedure with complication rates ranging from 5 to 21 percent. Training is typically performed using manikins that do not simulate anatomical variations such as obesity and abnormal vessel positioning. The goal of this study was to develop and validate the effectiveness of a new virtual reality and force haptic ...
Despite the increasing popularity of soft robotic research, the application of soft robots is hindered by their limited ability to change compliance and acquire force and position feedback. In this article, both the controllability of compliance and the acquisition of position feedback are achieved in soft robotic fingers in the novel design of a three-dimensional (3D)-printed multismart material ...
A disease can be defined as an abnormal anatomy (pathology) and/or function (physiology) that may cause harm to the body. In clinical benign prostatic...
We present a unified framework which supports grounding natural-language semantics in robotic driving. This framework supports acquisition (learning g...
Mesenteric approach is an artery-first approach during pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). In the present study, we evaluated clinical and oncological benef...
In this paper, we present a novel approach to human-robot control. Taking inspiration from behaviour-based robotics and self-organisation principles, ...
PURPOSE: Changes in the appearance of retinal blood vessels are an important indicator for various ophthalmologic and cardiovascular diseases, includi...
BACKGROUND: Contrary to common belief of clinicians that hemorrhagic stroke survivors have better functional prognoses than ischemic, recent studies s...
OBJECTIVE: Supraclavicular brachial plexus block is preferable to general anaesthesia in upper limb surgeries. Various adjuvants have been added to im...
A novel hybrid brain-computer interface (BCI) based on the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal which consists of a motor imagery- (MI-) based online int...
PURPOSE: With the growing interest in advanced image-guidance for surgical robot systems, rapid integration and testing of robotic devices and medical...
Soft robotic devices have significant potential for medical device applications that warrant safe synergistic interaction with humans. This article de...
A low-cost robotic interface was used to assess the visuo-motor performance of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Twenty AD patients and twenty a...
Interlocked intramedullary nailing is the treatment of choice for femoral shaft fractures. However, distal locking is a technically challenging part o...
BACKGROUND: The accuracy of simulation-predicted fentanyl concentration in different types of surgical procedure is not fully understood. We wished to...
BACKGROUND: Surgical robots lack force feedback, which may lead to operation errors. In order to improve surgical outcomes, this research developed a ...
BACKGROUND: Few studies compare the effectiveness of blocked vs random practice conditions in minimally invasive surgery training, and none have evalu...
We introduce an implantable intracardiac soft robotic right ventricular ejection device (RVED) for dynamic approximation of the right ventricular (RV)...
