Segmentation of Arm Ultrasound Images in Breast Cancer-Related Lymphedema: A Database and Deep Learning Algorithm.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Breast cancer treatment often causes the removal of or damage to lymph nodes of the patient's lymphatic drainage system. This side effect is the origin of Breast Cancer-Related Lymphedema (BCRL), referring to a noticeable increase in exces...

Customization of a passive surgical support robot to specifications for ophthalmic surgery and preliminary evaluation.

Japanese journal of ophthalmology
PURPOSE: To customize a passive surgery support robot for ophthalmic surgery and preliminarily evaluate its performance.

Collision avoidance analysis of human-robot physical interaction based on null-space impedance control of a dynamic reference arm plane.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
When the terminal upper limb rehabilitation robot is used for motion-assisted training, collisions between the manipulator links and the human upper limb may occur due to the null-space self-motion of the redundant manipulator. A null-space impedance...

Impairments of the arm and hand are highly correlated during subacute stroke.

Journal of rehabilitation medicine
BACKGROUND: The classical description of poststroke upper limb impairment follows a proximalto-distal impairment gradient. Previous studies are equivocal on whether the hand is more impaired than the arm.

Biomimetic Approaches for Human Arm Motion Generation: Literature Review and Future Directions.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In recent years, numerous studies have been conducted to analyze how humans subconsciously optimize various performance criteria while performing a particular task, which has led to the development of robots that are capable of performing tasks with ...

Assessing the Effects of Deep Learning Reconstruction on Abdominal CT Without Arm Elevation.

Canadian Association of Radiologists journal = Journal l'Association canadienne des radiologistes
To evaluate the effects of deep learning reconstruction (DLR) on image quality of abdominal computed tomography (CT) in patients without arm elevation compared with hybrid-iterative reconstruction (Hybrid-IR) and filtered back projection (FBP). In ...

Gender classification from anthropometric measurement by boosting decision tree: A novel machine learning approach.

Journal of the National Medical Association
The decision tree used a generating set of rules based on various correlated variables for developing an algorithm from the target variable. Using the training dataset this paper used boosting tree algorithm for gender classification from twenty-five...

Preoperative planning of three axis intersection surgical laparoscopic arm system based on characteristic parameters.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: The application of robotics in the field of minimally invasive surgery solves some shortcomings of traditional minimally invasive surgery. Preoperative planning is an important prerequisite for the successful completion of robot-assisted sur...

Restoring arm function with a soft robotic wearable for individuals with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Science translational medicine
Despite promising results in the rehabilitation field, it remains unclear whether upper limb robotic wearables, e.g., for people with physical impairments resulting from neurodegenerative disease, can be made portable and suitable for everyday use. W...

The identification of interacting brain networks during robot-assisted training with multimodal stimulation.

Journal of neural engineering
Robot-assisted rehabilitation training is an effective way to assist rehabilitation therapy. So far, various robotic devices have been developed for automatic training of central nervous system following injury. Multimodal stimulation such as visual ...
