BACKGROUND: Myocardial pathology segmentation plays an utmost role in the diagnosis and treatment of myocardial infarction (MI). However, manual segmentation is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and requires a lot of professional knowledge and clin...
We aim to assess the available evidence concerning the robot-assisted repair of cesarean scar defect. A systematic PubMed and Scopus search was conducted. All databases were assessed up to May 23, 2022. Studies reporting data on robot-assisted repair...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Myocardial infarction scar (MIS) assessment by cardiac magnetic resonance provides prognostic information and guides patients' clinical management. However, MIS segmentation is time-consuming and not performed routinely. Th...
Delayed surgical reconstruction of iatrogenic ureteral injuries is often a challenging procedure because spreading scar tissue impedes accurate identification and dissection of the injured ureter. We report a novel real-time navigation system using a...
Accurate segmentation of the left ventricle (LV) is crucial for evaluating myocardial perfusion SPECT (MPS) and assessing LV functions. In this study, a novel method combining deep learning with shape priors was developed and validated to extract the...
BACKGROUND: Patients with prostate cancer are offered a wide range of treatments from radiation therapy to chemotherapy to surgery. When giving radiation therapy, SpaceOAR hydrogel has been part of the standard treatment for the last decade to reduce...
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the effect of a new type of tension-reduced suture named "double W tension-reduced suture technique" on the abdominal scars following the da Vinci robot-assisted gastrectomy for severely obese patients.

Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) is used to improve cosmetic outcomes while maintaining oncological safety in patients with early breast cancer; however, NSM requires a higher level of skill and workload than mastectomy and is associated with long, vi...
INTRODUCTION: A DnCNN for image denoising trained with natural images is available in MATLAB. For Tc-99m DMSA images, any loss of clinical details during the denoising process will have serious consequences since denoised image is to be used for diag...
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.
