BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted valve surgery represents the latest development in the field of minimally invasive approaches. Robotic assistance may provide greater visualization, enhanced dexterity, and greater precision than traditional mini-thoracotom...
A 76-year-old male patient was referred to our institution with moderate-to-severe aortic and mitral insufficiency. The patient underwent totally endoscopic robot-assisted aortic valve replacement and mitral valve repair. In this article, we present ...
The first step in the automatic evaluation of the cardiac prosthetic valve is the recognition of such valves in echocardiographic images. This research surveyed whether a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) could improve the recognition of prost...
