Latest AI and machine learning research in surgery for healthcare professionals.
The number of interventions using robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) is increasing in Germany, following the previous international development. Robot-assisted surgery provides some technical advantages and can overcome existing limitations of video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS), especially in the case of extended resections, thus enabling the proportion of minimally invasive operations to ...
Surgical techniques have greatly changed and advanced with the advent of robot-assisted surgery (RAS). Patient outcome measures for RAS generally focus on patient morbidity and mortality, surgical complications, and hospital length of stay; there is limited research on patients' perceptions of RAS. Researchers conducted an integrative literature review of published research on patient experience a...
The management of indeterminate pulmonary nodules (IPNs) remains challenging, resulting in invasive procedures and delays in diagnosis and treatment....
Artificial intelligence (AI)-facilitated clinical automation is expected to become increasingly prevalent in the near future. AI techniques may permit...
