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, ...

Altered resting-state functional connectivity and effective connectivity of the habenula in irritable bowel syndrome: A cross-sectional and machine learning study.

Human brain mapping
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a disorder involving dysfunctional brain-gut interactions characterized by chronic recurrent abdominal pain, altered bowel habits, and negative emotion. Previous studies have linked the habenula to the pathophysiolog...

Motor improvement estimation and task adaptation for personalized robot-aided therapy: a feasibility study.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: In the past years, robotic systems have become increasingly popular in upper limb rehabilitation. Nevertheless, clinical studies have so far not been able to confirm superior efficacy of robotic therapy over conventional methods. The pers...

Cochlear implant telemedicine: Remote fitting based on psychoacoustic self-tests and artificial intelligence.

Cochlear implants international
This study aims to assess the feasibility of autonomous cochlear implant (CI) fitting by adult CI recipients based on psychoacoustic self-testing and artificial intelligence (AI). A feasibility study was performed on six adult CI recipients implant...

Endoscopic three-categorical diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection using linked color imaging and deep learning: a single-center prospective study (with video).

Gastric cancer : official journal of the International Gastric Cancer Association and the Japanese Gastric Cancer Association
BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication is required to reduce incidence related to gastric cancer. Recently, it was found that even after the successful eradication of H. pylori, an increased, i.e., moderate, risk of gastric cancer pe...

Reaching exercise for chronic paretic upper extremity after stroke using a novel rehabilitation robot with arm-weight support and concomitant electrical stimulation and vibration: before-and-after feasibility trial.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Our group developed a rehabilitation robot to assist with repetitive, active reaching movement of a paretic upper extremity. The robot is equipped with a servo motor-controlled arm-weight support and works in conjunction with neuromuscula...

Standard SPECT myocardial perfusion estimation from half-time acquisitions using deep convolutional residual neural networks.

Journal of nuclear cardiology : official publication of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology
INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this work was to assess the feasibility of acquisition time reduction in MPI-SPECT imaging using deep leering techniques through two main approaches, namely reduction of the acquisition time per projection and reduction o...

Perioperative margin detection in basal cell carcinoma using a deep learning framework: a feasibility study.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the number of diagnosis is growing worldwide due to increased exposure to solar radiation and the aging population. Reduction of positive margin rates when removing BCC lea...

Detection and identification of Cannabis sativa L. using near infrared hyperspectral imaging and machine learning methods. A feasibility study.

Spectrochimica acta. Part A, Molecular and biomolecular spectroscopy
Remote identification of illegal plantations of Cannabis sativa Linnaeus is an important task for the Brazilian Federal Police. The current analytical methodology is expensive and strongly dependent on the expertise of the forensic investigator. A fa...
