Initial Experience Using a Telerobotic Ultrasound System for Adult Abdominal Sonography.

Canadian Association of Radiologists journal = Journal l'Association canadienne des radiologistes
PURPOSE: The study sought to assess the feasibility of performing adult abdominal examinations using a telerobotic ultrasound system in which radiologists or sonographers can control fine movements of a transducer and all ultrasound settings from a r...

The impact of robot-mediated adaptive I-TRAVLE training on impaired upper limb function in chronic stroke and multiple sclerosis.

Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology
PURPOSE: The current study aimed to investigate proof-of-concept efficacy of an individualized, robot-mediated training regime for people with MS (pwMS) and stroke patients.

Deep ensemble learning of sparse regression models for brain disease diagnosis.

Medical image analysis
Recent studies on brain imaging analysis witnessed the core roles of machine learning techniques in computer-assisted intervention for brain disease diagnosis. Of various machine-learning techniques, sparse regression models have proved their effecti...

Predicting prostate tumour location from multiparametric MRI using Gaussian kernel support vector machines: a preliminary study.

Australasian physical & engineering sciences in medicine
The performance of a support vector machine (SVM) algorithm was investigated to predict prostate tumour location using multi-parametric MRI (mpMRI) data. The purpose was to obtain information of prostate tumour location for the implementation of bio-...

Disease-free survival assessment by artificial neural networks for hepatocellular carcinoma patients after radiofrequency ablation.

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association = Taiwan yi zhi
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) provides an effective treatment for patients who exhibit early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) stages or are waiting for liver transplantation. It is important to assess patients after RFA. The goal of...

Comparison of the effects on dynamic balance and aerobic capacity between objective and subjective methods of high-intensity robot-assisted gait training in chronic stroke patients: a randomized controlled trial.

Topics in stroke rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) is effective for improving dynamic balance and aerobic capacity, but previous RAGT method does not set suitable training intensity. Recently, high-intensity treadmill gait training at 70% of heart rate ...

Relational-Regularized Discriminative Sparse Learning for Alzheimer's Disease Diagnosis.

IEEE transactions on cybernetics
Accurate identification and understanding informative feature is important for early Alzheimer's disease (AD) prognosis and diagnosis. In this paper, we propose a novel discriminative sparse learning method with relational regularization to jointly p...

Patient-Centered Robot-Aided Passive Neurorehabilitation Exercise Based on Safety-Motion Decision-Making Mechanism.

BioMed research international
Safety is one of the crucial issues for robot-aided neurorehabilitation exercise. When it comes to the passive rehabilitation training for stroke patients, the existing control strategies are usually just based on position control to carry out the tr...

Predicting probable Alzheimer's disease using linguistic deficits and biomarkers.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: The manual diagnosis of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related Dementias has been a challenge. Currently, these disorders are diagnosed using specific clinical diagnostic criteria and neuropsychological e...

Reliability of Robotic Telemedicine for Assessing Critically Ill Patients with the Full Outline of UnResponsiveness Score and Glasgow Coma Scale.

Telemedicine journal and e-health : the official journal of the American Telemedicine Association
PURPOSE: Telemedicine is increasingly utilized in the evaluation of critically ill patients, including those with decreased level of consciousness (LOC) or coma. Improving access to providers with neurologic expertise affords earlier triage and direc...
