Addressing multi-label imbalance problem of surgical tool detection using CNN.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: A fully automated surgical tool detection framework is proposed for endoscopic video streams. State-of-the-art surgical tool detection methods rely on supervised one-vs-all or multi-class classification techniques, completely ignoring the co...

A cable-driven soft robot surgical system for cardiothoracic endoscopic surgery: preclinical tests in animals.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive surgery attracts more and more attention because of the advantages of minimal trauma, less bleeding and pain and low complication rate. However, minimally invasive surgery for beating hearts is still a challenge. Our go...

Exploring Deep Learning and Transfer Learning for Colonic Polyp Classification.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
Recently, Deep Learning, especially through Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) has been widely used to enable the extraction of highly representative features. This is done among the network layers by filtering, selecting, and using these features ...

Computer-Aided Endoscopic Diagnosis Without Human-Specific Labeling.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
GOAL: Most state-of-the-art computer-aided endoscopic diagnosis methods require pixelwise labeled data to train various supervised machine learning models. However, it is a tedious and time-consuming work to collect sufficient precisely labeled image...

Endoscopic autologous cartilage injection for the patulous eustachian tube.

American journal of otolaryngology
Patulous eustachian tube (PET) can have a significant negative impact on a patient's quality of life. Several methods of surgical management can be an option to treat PET, and our objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous cartila...

Applications of Evolving Robotic Technology for Head and Neck Surgery.

The Annals of otology, rhinology, and laryngology
OBJECTIVE: Assess the use and potential benefits of a new robotic system for transoral radical tonsillectomy, transoral supraglottic laryngectomy, and retroauricular thyroidectomy in a cadaver dissection.

Foot-controlled robotic-enabled endoscope holder for endoscopic sinus surgery: A cadaveric feasibility study.

The Laryngoscope
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: To evaluate the feasibility of a unique prototype foot-controlled robotic-enabled endoscope holder (FREE) in functional endoscopic sinus surgery.

Real-Time Classification of Bladder Events for Effective Diagnosis and Treatment of Urinary Incontinence.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
Diagnosis of lower urinary tract dysfunction with urodynamics has historically relied on data acquired from multiple sensors using nonphysiologically fast cystometric filling. In addition, state-of-the-art neuromodulation approaches to restore bladde...
