Accurate and efficient catheter segmentation in 3D ultrasound (US) is essential for ultrasound-guided cardiac interventions. State-of-the-art segmentation algorithms, based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs), suffer from high computational cost ...
Over the past decades, Vascular Interventional Surgery Robots (VISR) have been developed to address the risks associated with X-rays used in minimally invasive vascular surgery procedures. Manipulation of over-the-wire catheters is necessary to perfo...
Robotic catheter angiography is an emerging technology with the opportunity to increase procedural precision and decrease occupational hazards.1-5 In this video, we present our initial experiences with the CorPath GRX Robotic System (Corindus, a Seim...
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) can differentiate normal colonic mucosa from neoplasia, potentially offering a new mechanism of endoscopic tissue assessment and biopsy targeting, with a high optical resolution and an imaging depth of ~1 mm. Recent...

PURPOSE: Intra-Cardiac Echocardiography (ICE) is a powerful imaging modality for guiding cardiac electrophysiology and structural heart interventions. ICE provides real-time observation of anatomy and devices, while enabling direct monitoring of pote...
OBJECTIVES: Complications due to peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVC) can be assessed using ultrasound imaging; however, it is not routinely conducted due to the need for training in image reading techniques. This study aimed to develop and valida...
BACKGROUND: Peripherally inserted central catheters have been extensively applied in clinical practices. However, they are associated with an increased risk of thrombosis. To improve patient care, it is critical to timely identify patients at risk of...
Catheter tracking has become an integral part of interventional radiology. Over the last decades, researchers have significantly contributed to theoretical and technical catheter tracking solutions. However, most of the published work thus far focuse...
