BACKGROUND: Intraoperative cholangiography (IOC) is a contrast-enhanced X-ray acquired during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. IOC images the biliary tree whereby filling defects, anatomical anomalies and duct injuries can be identified. In Australia, I...

This preliminary study is the first to demonstrate that AI can precisely identify loose connective tissue during laparoscopic cholecystectomy and ICG fluorescent cholangiography. Tashiro and colleagues conclude that this novel real-time navigation mo...
PURPOSE: Early confirmation or ruling out biliary atresia (BA) is essential for infants with delayed onset of jaundice. In the current practice, percutaneous liver biopsy and intraoperative cholangiography (IOC) remain the golden standards for diagno...
BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive single-port surgery is often associated with large incisions up to 2-3 cm, complicated handling due to the lack of triangulation, and instrument crossing. Aim of this prospective study was to perform true single-port su...
PURPOSE: Deep learning reconstruction (DLR) introduces deep convolutional neural networks into the reconstruction flow. We examined the clinical applicability of drip-infusion cholangiography (DIC) acquired on an ultra-high-resolution CT (U-HRCT) sca...
