PURPOSE: To evaluate the concordance between lung biopsy puncture pathways determined by artificial intelligence (AI) and those determined by expert physicians.
In robot-assisted ultrasound-guided needle biopsy, it is essential to conduct calibration of the ultrasound probe and to perform hand-eye calibration of the robot in order to establish a link between intra-operatively acquired ultrasound images and r...
Background Accurate detection of pneumothorax on chest radiographs, the most common complication of percutaneous transthoracic needle biopsies (PTNBs), is not always easy in practice. A computer-aided detection (CAD) system may help detect pneumothor...

PURPOSE: We present the validation of PROST, a robotic device for prostate biopsy. PROST is designed to minimize human error by introducing some autonomy in the execution of the key steps of the procedure, i.e., target selection, image fusion and nee...
Radiologists very frequently encounter incidental findings related to the thyroid gland. Given increases in imaging use over the past several decades, thyroid incidentalomas are increasingly encountered in clinical practice, and it is important for r...
