OBJECTIVE: The use of the da Vinci Robot has been fast growing in general surgery in the United States over the past decade. While the financial cost of robot-assisted procedures has been studied, there has been limited research on the educational co...
IMPORTANCE: Chest radiography is the most common diagnostic imaging examination performed in emergency departments (EDs). Augmenting clinicians with automated preliminary read assistants could help expedite their workflows, improve accuracy, and redu...
INTRODUCTION: Trainees underestimate the amount of operative autonomy they receive, whereas faculty overestimate; this has not been studied in robotics. We aimed to assess the perceptions and expectations of our general surgery trainees and faculty o...
PURPOSE: To (1) develop a deep learning system (DLS) using a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) for identification of pneumothorax, (2) compare its performance to first-year radiology residents, and (3) evaluate the ability of a DLS to augment ...

Although deep learning algorithms have demonstrated expert-level performance, previous efforts were mostly binary classifications of limited disorders. We trained an algorithm with 220,680 images of 174 disorders and validated it using Edinburgh (1,3...
PURPOSE: This study aimed to validate a deep learning model's diagnostic performance in using computed tomography (CT) to diagnose cervical lymph node metastasis (LNM) from thyroid cancer in a large clinical cohort and to evaluate the model's clinica...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is an emerging technology that brings a wide array of new tools to the field of radiology. AI will certainly have an impact on the day-to-day work of radiologists in the coming decades, thus training programs must prepare...
OBJECTIVE: To determine barriers associated with the transition from bedside assistant to console surgeon for general surgery residents in the era of robotic surgery in general surgery training.
