Lasers in laparoscopic and robotic surgery: is there a need for them.

Current opinion in urology
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The application of lasers in treating urological disorders is a developing area. In the laparoscopic and robotic surgery, laser energy is not so popular as in the treatment of stone disease and benign prostatic hyperplasia. The aim...

[Evaluation on Surgical Robotic Pose Repeatability Based on Laser Tracking Measurement].

Zhongguo yi liao qi xie za zhi = Chinese journal of medical instrumentation
To provide accurate information for registration and safety evaluation of surgical robot, the pose repeatability measurement method was proposed. According to the terminal instrument of the master-slave surgical robot (such as high-frequency electric...

Bringing the light inside the body to perform better surgery.

Science robotics
Miniaturized robotic laser steering opens new horizons for laser microsurgery.

[Urology].

Revue medicale suisse
Over the last year, urologic progress remains driven by the quick technologic evolution, with a focus on Laser and robotics. The latter appears to potentially contribute to the drift towards ambulatory surgery, in particular for distinct sub-populati...

Image edge detection with a photonic spiking VCSEL-neuron.

Optics express
We report both experimentally and in theory on the detection of edge features in digital images with an artificial optical spiking neuron based on a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL). The latter delivers fast (< 100 ps) neuron-like optic...

Photonic spiking neural network based on excitable VCSELs-SA for sound azimuth detection.

Optics express
We propose a photonic spiking neural network (SNN) based on excitable vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers with an embedded saturable absorber (VCSELs-SA) for emulating the sound azimuth detection function of the brain for the first time. Here, th...

Machine learning in multiexposure laser speckle contrast imaging can replace conventional laser Doppler flowmetry.

Journal of biomedical optics
Laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) enables video rate imaging of blood flow. However, its relation to tissue blood perfusion is nonlinear and depends strongly on exposure time. By contrast, the perfusion estimate from the slower laser Doppler flow...

Three-dimensional direct laser writing of biomimetic neuron structures.

Optics express
Building biomimetic neuron structures that emulate the topological features of biological neural networks at multiple scales has been an active area in neuron cell culturing, neuron-chip interface and computer chip design. However, due to the fact th...

Micro-scale fiber-optic force sensor fabricated using direct laser writing and calibrated using machine learning.

Optics express
Fiber-optic sensors have numerous existing and emerging applications spanning areas from industrial process monitoring to medical diagnosis. Two of the most common fiber sensors are based on the fabrication of Bragg gratings or Fabry-Perot etalons. W...

[Study on the appropriate parameters of automatic full crown tooth preparation for dental tooth preparation robot].

Zhonghua kou qiang yi xue za zhi = Zhonghua kouqiang yixue zazhi = Chinese journal of stomatology
To further study the most suitable parameters for automatic full crown preparation using oral clinical micro robot. Its purpose is to improve the quality of automated tooth preparing for the system and to lay the foundation for clinical application....
