A Comprehensive Video Dataset for Surgical Laparoscopic Action Analysis.

Scientific data
Laparoscopic surgery has been widely used in various surgical fields due to its minimally invasive and rapid recovery benefits. However, it demands a high level of technical expertise from surgeons. While advancements in computer vision and deep lear...

Generalizability of Artificial Intelligence Assessments in Laparoscopic Surgery Simulation.

The Journal of surgical research
INTRODUCTION: The application of artificial intelligence (AI) in the assessment of procedural skills on a simulation platform using the global rating scale (GRS) has shown promise. Our team developed an open-source, low-cost simulation platform for t...

Development and validation of automated three-dimensional convolutional neural network model for acute appendicitis diagnosis.

Scientific reports
Rapid, accurate preoperative imaging diagnostics of appendicitis are critical in surgical decisions of emergency care. This study developed a fully automated diagnostic framework using a 3D convolutional neural network (CNN) to identify appendicitis ...

Machine-learning-assisted Preoperative Prediction of Pediatric Appendicitis Severity.

Journal of pediatric surgery
PURPOSE: This study evaluates the effectiveness of machine learning (ML) algorithms for improving the preoperative diagnosis of acute appendicitis in children, focusing on the accurate prediction of the severity of disease.

An Approach for Combining Clinical Judgment with Machine Learning to Inform Medical Decision Making: Analysis of Nonemergency Surgery Strategies for Acute Appendicitis in Patients with Multiple Long-Term Conditions.

Medical decision making : an international journal of the Society for Medical Decision Making
BACKGROUND: Machine learning (ML) methods can identify complex patterns of treatment effect heterogeneity. However, before ML can help to personalize decision making, transparent approaches must be developed that draw on clinical judgment. We develop...

Multicenter validation of an artificial intelligence (AI)-based platform for the diagnosis of acute appendicitis.

Surgery
BACKGROUND: The current scores used to help diagnose acute appendicitis have a "gray" zone in which the diagnosis is usually inconclusive. Furthermore, the universal use of CT scanning is limited because of the radiation hazards and/or limited resour...

Applying an explainable machine learning model might reduce the number of negative appendectomies in pediatric patients with a high probability of acute appendicitis.

Scientific reports
The diagnosis of acute appendicitis and concurrent surgery referral is primarily based on clinical presentation, laboratory and radiological imaging. However, utilizing such an approach results in as much as 10-15% of negative appendectomies. Hence, ...

Implementation of artificial intelligence-based computer vision model in laparoscopic appendectomy: validation, reliability, and clinical correlation.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Application of artificial intelligence (AI) in general surgery is evolving. Real-world implementation of an AI-based computer-vision model in laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) is presented. We aimed to evaluate (1) its accuracy in complexity...

Current use of artificial intelligence in the diagnosis and management of acute appendicitis.

Minerva surgery
INTRODUCTION: Acute appendicitis is a common and time-sensitive surgical emergency, requiring rapid and accurate diagnosis and management to prevent complications. Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative tool in healthcare, offer...
