The tumor-stroma ratio (TSR) determined by pathologists is subject to intra- and inter-observer variability. We aimed to develop a computational quantification method of TSR using deep learning-based virtual cytokeratin staining algorithms. Patients ...
After proximal gastrectomy, valvuloplastic esophagogastrostomy by double-flap technique could be the ideal reconstruction to prevent gastroesophageal reflux. However, it is demanding procedure in laparoscopic surgery. In this video, we demonstrate a ...
BACKGROUND: Previous studies evaluating the prognostic value of computed tomography (CT)-derived body composition data have included few patients. Thus, we assessed the prevalence and prognostic value of sarcopenic obesity in a large population of ga...

PURPOSE: Surgical workflow recognition is a crucial and challenging problem when building a computer-assisted surgery system. Current techniques focus on utilizing a convolutional neural network and a recurrent neural network (CNN-RNN) to solve the s...
BACKGROUND: A new device has been added to the Chinese MicroHand surgical robot family, developed based on the successful application of control algorithms. As a benefit of using these specialized control algorithms, the motion mapping relation can b...
BACKGROUND: Robotic distal gastrectomy (RDG) has been increasingly used for the treatment of gastric cancer (GC). However, whether RDG has a clinical advantage over laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG) is yet to be determined. Thus, this study aimed...

Minimally invasive surgery techniques have evolved remarkably over the past few decades in the field of surgical oncology, including robotic techniques for gastric malignancies. Bedside surgical assistance is often limited by operating table space or...
The robotic system has overcome some laparoscopic shortcomings, such as stereoscopic 3D-magnified vision, a stable camera and flexible and tremor filtering manipulation. Therefore, robotic surgery has made many steps forward gaining more diffusion in...
Although there is no agreement on a definition of elderly, commonly an age cutoff of ≥ 65 or 75 years is used. Even if robot-assisted surgery is a validated option for the elderly population, there are no specific indications for its application in t...
