Development of an algorithm for intraoperative autofluorescence assessment of parathyroid glands in primary hyperparathyroidism using artificial intelligence.

Surgery
BACKGROUND: Previous work showed that normal and abnormal parathyroid glands exhibit different patterns of autofluorescence, with the former appearing brighter and more homogenous. However, an objective algorithm based on quantified measurements was ...

Intraoperative localization of small pulmonary nodules to assist surgical resection: A novel approach using a surgical navigation puncture robot system.

Thoracic cancer
BACKGROUND: Localization and resection of nonvisible, nonpalpable pulmonary nodules during video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery is challenging. In this study we developed a surgical navigation puncture robot system in order to locate small pulmonary ...

Can We Accurately Identify Peritoneal Metastases Based on Their Appearance? An Assessment of the Current Practice of Intraoperative Gastrointestinal Cancer Staging.

Annals of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: Peritoneal lesions are common findings during operative abdominal cancer staging. The decision to perform biopsy is made subjectively by the surgeon, a practice the authors hypothesized to be imprecise. This study aimed to describe optica...

Prediction of skin dose in low-kV intraoperative radiotherapy using machine learning models trained on results of in vivo dosimetry.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to implement a machine learning model to predict skin dose from targeted intraoperative (TARGIT) treatment resulting in timely adoption of strategies to limit excessive skin dose.

Learning curve in robotic rectal cancer surgery: current state of affairs.

International journal of colorectal disease
INTRODUCTION: Robotic-assisted rectal cancer surgery offers multiple advantages for surgeons, and it seems to yield the same clinical outcomes as regards the short-time follow-up of patients compared to conventional laparoscopy. This surgical approac...
