INTRODUCTION: We report a case of a patient who presented with incarceration of the epiploic appendix in a spigelian hernia, subsequently treated by a robotic-assisted surgical approach.
Image registration is a fundamental medical image analysis task, and a wide variety of approaches have been proposed. However, only a few studies have comprehensively compared medical image registration approaches on a wide range of clinically releva...
The purpose of this study was to realize an automated volume measurement of abdominal adipose tissue from the entire abdominal cavity in Dixon magnetic resonance (MR) images using deep learning. Our algorithm involves a combination of extraction of t...
