Robot-assisted ipsilateral partial nephrectomy with distal ureterectomy for synchronous renal and ureteric tumors-a case report.

Journal of the Egyptian National Cancer Institute
BACKGROUND: Ipsilateral synchronous renal and ureteric tumor is uncommon. Nephron sparing surgery is the standard for small renal masses. Ureteric tumors can be selectively managed with nephron sparing surgery, especially in renal dysfunction. This c...

Graph based multi-scale neighboring topology deep learning for kidney and tumor segmentation.

Physics in medicine and biology
Effective learning and modelling of spatial and semantic relations between image regions in various ranges are critical yet challenging in image segmentation tasks.We propose a novel deep graph reasoning model to learn from multi-order neighborhood t...

Robotic Surgery for Stone Disease.

Current urology reports
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To evaluate recent literature regarding the role of robotic technology in the treatment of nephrolithiasis with particular attention to complex technical procedures.

Artificial Intelligence You Can Trust: What Matters Beyond Performance When Applying Artificial Intelligence to Renal Histopathology?

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology : JASN
Although still in its infancy, artificial intelligence (AI) analysis of kidney biopsy images is anticipated to become an integral aspect of renal histopathology. As these systems are developed, the focus will understandably be on developing ever more...

Stain-Independent Deep Learning-Based Analysis of Digital Kidney Histopathology.

The American journal of pathology
Convolutional neural network (CNN)-based image analysis applications in digital pathology (eg, tissue segmentation) require a large amount of annotated data and are mostly trained and applicable on a single stain. Here, a novel concept based on stain...

Kidney Tumor Detection and Classification Based on Deep Learning Approaches: A New Dataset in CT Scans.

Journal of healthcare engineering
Kidney tumor (KT) is one of the diseases that have affected our society and is the seventh most common tumor in both men and women worldwide. The early detection of KT has significant benefits in reducing death rates, producing preventive measures th...

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...

Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery with a fluorescent near-infrared ray ureteral catheter for a rectal cancer patient with pelvic kidney: A case report.

Asian journal of endoscopic surgery
An 85-year-old woman presented with a stomachache after a meal and was admitted to the previous clinic. Multi-detector computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen showed wall thickening in the rectum and right ectopic pelvic kidney. Colonoscopy revealed ...

A VS ultrasound diagnostic system with kidney image evaluation functions.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: An inevitable feature of ultrasound-based diagnoses is that the quality of the ultrasound images produced depends directly on the skill of the physician operating the probe. This is because physicians have to constantly adjust the probe posi...

Robotic partial nephrectomy for complex kidney cyst in a 4-year old boy: Points of technique.

Journal of pediatric urology
Complex kidney cysts are rarely observed in childhood. In adult patients, when radiological studies found a suspicious renal lesion, the gold standard is surgical asportation. The robotic surgery is well known as a secure procedure for treatment thes...
