Prediction of pituitary adenoma surgical consistency: radiomic data mining and machine learning on T2-weighted MRI.

Neuroradiology
PURPOSE: Pituitary macroadenoma consistency can influence the ease of lesion removal during surgery, especially when using a transsphenoidal approach. Unfortunately, it is not assessable on standard qualitative MRI. Radiomic texture analysis could he...

The Impact of Artificial Intelligence in the Endoscopic Assessment of Premalignant and Malignant Esophageal Lesions: Present and Future.

Medicina (Kaunas, Lithuania)
In the gastroenterology field, the impact of artificial intelligence was investigated for the purposes of diagnostics, risk stratification of patients, improvement in quality of endoscopic procedures and early detection of neoplastic diseases, implem...

Machine learning based identification of relevant parameters for functional voice disorders derived from endoscopic high-speed recordings.

Scientific reports
In voice research and clinical assessment, many objective parameters are in use. However, there is no commonly used set of parameters that reflect certain voice disorders, such as functional dysphonia (FD); i.e. disorders with no visible anatomical c...

Automatic task recognition in a flexible endoscopy benchtop trainer with semi-supervised learning.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Inexpensive benchtop training systems offer significant advantages to meet the increasing demand of training surgeons and gastroenterologists in flexible endoscopy. Established scoring systems exist, based on task duration and mistake evalua...

A Novel Robotic Endoscopic Device Used for Operative Hysteroscopy.

Journal of minimally invasive gynecology
To trial the use of a novel endoscopic robot that functions using concentric tube robots, enabling 2-handed surgery in small spaces, in a bioengineering laboratory. This was a feasibility study of the endoscopic robot for hysteroscopic applications, ...

Robot-based assistance in middle ear surgery and cochlear implantation: first clinical report.

European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery
PURPOSE: Middle ear surgery may benefit from robot-based assistance to hold micro-instruments or an endoscope. However, the surgical gesture performed by one hand may perturb surgeons accustomed to two-handed surgery. A robot-based holder may combine...

The effects of different levels of realism on the training of CNNs with only synthetic images for the semantic segmentation of robotic instruments in a head phantom.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: The manual generation of training data for the semantic segmentation of medical images using deep neural networks is a time-consuming and error-prone task. In this paper, we investigate the effect of different levels of realism on the traini...

Learning from irregularly sampled data for endomicroscopy super-resolution: a comparative study of sparse and dense approaches.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) enables performing an optical biopsy via a probe. pCLE probes consist of multiple optical fibres arranged in a bundle, which taken together generate signals in an irregularly sampled pattern. ...
