Robotic and navigated pedicle screws are safer and more accurate than fluoroscopic freehand screws: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

The spine journal : official journal of the North American Spine Society
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Navigated and robotic pedicle screw placement systems have been developed to improve the accuracy of screw placement. However, the literature comparing the safety and accuracy of robotic and navigated screw placement with fluorosc...

Robotic system for accurate percutaneous puncture guided by 3D-2D ultrasound.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Ultrasound (US)-guided robotic systems can reduce the reliance on the experience and skills of surgeons and enable automatic and accurate percutaneous puncture. Two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) US guidance have various advanta...

Introduction to the Theme "Development of New Drugs: Moving from the Bench to Bedside and Improved Patient Care".

Annual review of pharmacology and toxicology
Investigations in pharmacology and toxicology range from molecular studies to clinical care. Studies in basic and clinical pharmacology and in preclinical and clinical toxicology are all essential in bringing new knowledge and new drugs into clinical...

Completion of disconnective surgery for refractory epilepsy in pediatric patients using robot-assisted MRI-guided laser interstitial thermal therapy.

Journal of neurosurgery. Pediatrics
OBJECTIVE: Since 2007, the authors have performed 34 hemispherotomies and 17 posterior quadrant disconnections (temporoparietooccipital [TPO] disconnections) for refractory epilepsy at Sant Joan de Déu Barcelona Children's Hospital. Incomplete discon...

Design and kinematics of a tube-shaped multidirectional bending robotic device using slackened SMA wires for transurethral ureterolithotripsy.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: The complex and elaborate structure of the urinary system presents surgeons with difficulty in using a ureteroscope with a fixed optical fiber to reach the targeted calculus. To address this challenge, a robotic device is required to control...

An automated online three-phase electro-extraction setup with machine-vision process monitoring hyphenated to LC-MS analysis.

Analytica chimica acta
Sample preparation is a labor-intensive and time-consuming procedure, especially for the bioanalysis of small-volume samples with low-abundant analytes. To minimize losses and dilution, sample preparation should ideally be hyphenated to downstream on...

Classification and regression of stenosis using an in-vitro pulse wave data set: Dependence on heart rate, waveform and location.

Computers in biology and medicine
BACKGROUND: Data-based approaches promise to use the information in cardiovascular signals to diagnose cardiovascular diseases. Considerable effort has been undertaken in the field of pulse-wave analysis to harness this information. However, the inve...

Computation of transcranial magnetic stimulation electric fields using self-supervised deep learning.

NeuroImage
Electric fields (E-fields) induced by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can be modeled using partial differential equations (PDEs). Using state-of-the-art finite-element methods (FEM), it often takes tens of seconds to solve the PDEs for comput...
