BACKGROUND: This study aimed to compare the prediction performance of two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) semantic segmentation models for intracranial metastatic tumors with a volume ≥ 0.3 mL.
Current coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has caused massive loss of lives. Clinical trials of vaccines and drugs are currently being conducted around the world; however, till now no effective drug is available for COVID-19. Identification...
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most malignant and lethal intracranial tumor, with extremely limited treatment options. Immunotherapy has been widely studied in GBM, but none can significantly prolong the overall survival (OS) of patients without selection...
MOTIVATION: Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) has been widely used to identify gene sets with statistically significant difference between cases and controls against a large gene set. GSEA needs both phenotype labels and expression of genes. Howeve...
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a common malignant brain tumor which often presents as a comorbidity with central nervous system (CNS) disorders. Both CNS disorders and GBM cells release glutamate and show an abnormality, but differ in cellular behavior. So, t...
AIMS: To report the outcomes of robot-assisted brain biopsies performed using a novel RONNA G4 system. The system was developed by a research group from the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture and a team of neurosurgeons from Dub...

To overcome the computational burden of processing three-dimensional (3D) medical scans and the lack of spatial information in two-dimensional (2D) medical scans, a novel segmentation method was proposed that integrates the segmentation results of th...
Robot-assisted brain tumor biopsy is becoming one of the most important innovative technologies in neurosurgical practice. The idea behind its engagement is to advance the safety and efficacy of the biopsy procedure, which is much in demand when plan...
Swimming biohybrid microsized robots (e.g., bacteria- or sperm-driven microrobots) with self-propelling and navigating capabilities have become an exciting field of research, thanks to their controllable locomotion in hard-to-reach areas of the body ...
BACKGROUND: Accurate detection of brain metastasis (BM) is important for cancer patients. We aimed to systematically review the performance and quality of machine-learning-based BM detection on MRI in the relevant literature.
