Neuromate robot-assisted ventricular catheter insertion.

British journal of neurosurgery
BACKGROUND AND IMPORTANCE: Insertion of ventricular catheters into small ventricles may require image guidance. Several options exist, including ultrasound guidance, frameless, and frame-based stereotactic approaches. There is no literature on manage...

Automatic Detection and Classification of Multiple Catheters in Neonatal Radiographs with Deep Learning.

Journal of digital imaging
We develop and evaluate a deep learning algorithm to classify multiple catheters on neonatal chest and abdominal radiographs. A convolutional neural network (CNN) was trained using a dataset of 777 neonatal chest and abdominal radiographs, with a spl...

Cryo-balloon catheter localization in X-Ray fluoroscopy using U-net.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Automatic identification of interventional devices in X-ray (XR) fluoroscopy offers the potential of improved navigation during transcatheter endovascular procedures. This paper presents a prototype implementation of fully automatic 3D recon...

Correlation of urinary loss rate after catheter removal and long-term urinary continence after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVES: To assess the correlation of urine loss rate after catheter removal with long-term continence after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Flow driven robotic navigation of microengineered endovascular probes.

Nature communications
Minimally invasive medical procedures, such as endovascular catheterization, have considerably reduced procedure time and associated complications. However, many regions inside the body, such as in the brain vasculature, still remain inaccessible due...

An Air Recirculation System Based on Bioinspired Soft Re-Air Valve for Highly Efficient Pneumatic Actuation.

Soft robotics
Owing to their compliance, lightweight, and high force density characteristics, pneumatic actuation systems have been widely implemented in various soft robots. However, pneumatic actuation systems exhibit low efficiency, poor control performance, an...

Detection of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) in chest X-ray images: A multi-task deep learning model.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) is a novel drug delivery mode which has been widely used in clinical practice. However, long-term retention and some improper actions of patients may cause some severe complicati...

Toward Task Autonomy in Robotic Cardiac Ablation: Learning-Based Kinematic Control of Soft Tendon-Driven Catheters.

Soft robotics
The goal of this study was to propose and validate a control framework with level-2 autonomy (task autonomy) for the control of flexible ablation catheters. To this end, a kinematic model for the flexible portion of typical ablation catheters was dev...

Creation and Testing of a Deep Learning Algorithm to Automatically Identify and Label Vessels, Nerves, Tendons, and Bones on Cross-sectional Point-of-Care Ultrasound Scans for Peripheral Intravenous Catheter Placement by Novices.

Journal of ultrasound in medicine : official journal of the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine
OBJECTIVES: We sought to create a deep learning (DL) algorithm to identify vessels, bones, nerves, and tendons on transverse upper extremity (UE) ultrasound (US) images to enable providers new to US-guided peripheral vascular access to identify anato...

Catheter segmentation in X-ray fluoroscopy using synthetic data and transfer learning with light U-nets.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
Background and objectivesAutomated segmentation and tracking of surgical instruments and catheters under X-ray fluoroscopy hold the potential for enhanced image guidance in catheter-based endovascular procedures. This article presents a novel method ...
