Skin scar is a prevalent dermatological concern that impacts both aesthetic appearance and psychological well-being, making precise delineation of scar tissue essential for clinical treatment. To address the challenge of scar image segmentation, this...
Machine learning (ML) classification of myocardial scarring in cardiac MRI is often hindered by limited explainability, particularly with convolutional neural networks (CNNs). To address this, we developed One Match (OM), an algorithm that builds on ...
BACKGROUND: The surgical difficulty of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for acute cholecystitis (AC) and the risk of bile duct injury (BDI) depend on the degree of fibrosis and scarring caused by inflammation; therefore, understanding these intraope...

This work proposes a convolutional neural network (CNN) that utilizes different combinations of parametric images computed from cine cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images, to classify each slice for possible myocardial scar tissue presence. The CNN...
Myocardial scar (MS) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) are vital cardiovascular parameters, conventionally determined using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR). However, given the high cost and limited availability of CMR in resource-constra...

BACKGROUND: Quantification of myocardial blood flow (MBF) is used for the noninvasive diagnosis of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). This study compared traditional statistics, machine learning, and deep learning techniques in their abilit...
PURPOSE: Focused parathyroidectomy is the gold standard treatment modality for primary hyperparathyroidism, which allows accurate preoperative localization. Robotic parathyroidectomy has emerged as a feasible procedure for focused parathyroidectomy. ...
BACKGROUND: Frontoorbital distraction osteogenesis (FODO) is an established surgical technique for patients with unicoronal craniosynostosis. The authors' institution has used an endoscope-assisted technique (endo-FODO) in recent years to decrease cu...
Evaluation of scar severity is crucial for determining proper treatment modalities; however, there is no gold standard for assessing scars. This study aimed to develop and evaluate an artificial intelligence model using images and clinical data to pr...
OBJECTIVE: To describe a novel high-precision technique for robotic excision of uterine isthmocele, employing a carbon dioxide laser fiber, under hysteroscopic guidance, and near-infrared guidance.
