Development and Validation of a Novel Calibration Methodology and Control Approach for Robot-Aided Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS).

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: This article presents the development and validation of a new robotic system for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), characterized by a new control approach, and an ad-hoc calibration methodology, specifically devised for the TMS appl...

Convolutional Neural Network Ensemble Segmentation With Ratio-Based Sampling for the Arteries and Veins in Abdominal CT Scans.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Three-dimensional (3D) blood vessel structure information is important for diagnosis and treatment in various clinical scenarios. We present a fully automatic method for the extraction and differentiation of the arterial and venous vessel ...

Exploiting telerobotics for sensorimotor rehabilitation: a locomotor embodiment.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Manual treadmill training is used for rehabilitating locomotor impairments but can be physically demanding for trainers. This has been addressed by enlisting robots, but in doing so, the ability of trainers to use their experience and jud...

Robotic versus laparoscopic distal gastrectomy in patients with gastric cancer: a propensity score-matched analysis.

BMC surgery
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...

Development and validation of a difficult laryngoscopy prediction model using machine learning of neck circumference and thyromental height.

BMC anesthesiology
BACKGROUND: Predicting difficult airway is challengeable in patients with limited airway evaluation. The aim of this study is to develop and validate a model that predicts difficult laryngoscopy by machine learning of neck circumference and thyroment...

Artificial intelligence based writer identification generates new evidence for the unknown scribes of the Dead Sea Scrolls exemplified by the Great Isaiah Scroll (1QIsaa).

PloS one
The Dead Sea Scrolls are tangible evidence of the Bible's ancient scribal culture. This study takes an innovative approach to palaeography-the study of ancient handwriting-as a new entry point to access this scribal culture. One of the problems of pa...

Deep learning in structural and functional lung image analysis.

The British journal of radiology
The recent resurgence of deep learning (DL) has dramatically influenced the medical imaging field. Medical image analysis applications have been at the forefront of DL research efforts applied to multiple diseases and organs, including those of the l...

Robot-assisted anorectal pull-through for anorectal malformations with rectourethral and rectovesical fistula: feasibility and short-term outcome.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Multiple structures in the anorectal area are closely related to defecation, voiding and sexual function. Although laparoscopic-assisted anorectal pull-through is widely accepted as a minimally invasive surgical technique, controversy sti...
