Fusion of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy technology and deep learning: a new method to identify malignant and benign lung tumors with high accuracy.

Analytical and bioanalytical chemistry
Precisely distinguishing between malignant and benign lung tumors is pivotal for suggesting therapeutic strategies and enhancing prognosis, yet this differentiation remains a daunting task. The growth rates, metastatic potentials, and prognoses of be...

Rapid identification of Salmonella serovars Enteritidis and Typhimurium using whole cell matrix assisted laser desorption ionization - Time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) coupled with multivariate analysis and artificial intelligence.

Journal of microbiological methods
Salmonella is a common food-borne pathogen with Enteritidis and Typhimurium being among the most important serovars causing numerous outbreaks. A rapid method was investigated to identify these serovars using whole-cell MALDI-TOF MS coupled with mult...

Transoral Laser-Assisted Infrahyoid Supraglottic Laryngectomy for Selected Patients With Supraglottic Cancer.

Otolaryngology--head and neck surgery : official journal of American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery
Supraglottic laryngectomy has evolved from open to transoral endoscopic approaches with advancements in surgical techniques and instruments such as lasers, endoscopes, ultrasonic devices, and robotics. Transoral laser-assisted microsurgery has emerge...

Deep learning-based method for analyzing the optically trapped sperm rotation.

Scientific reports
Optical tweezers exert a strong trapping force on cells, making it crucial to analyze the movement of trapped cells. The rotation of cells plays a significant role in their swimming patterns, such as in sperm cells. We proposed a fast deep-learning-b...

A Laser-Driven Microrobot for Thermal Stimulation of Single Cells.

Advanced healthcare materials
Here, the study presents a thermally activated cell-signal imaging (TACSI) microrobot, capable of photothermal actuation, sensing, and light-driven locomotion. The plasmonic soft microrobot is specifically designed for thermal stimulation of mammalia...

Enhancing Robotic-Based Propeller Blade Sharpening Efficiency with a Laser-Vision Sensor and a Force Compliance Mechanism.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The edge sharpness of a propeller blade plays a vital role in improving energy transmission efficiency and reducing the power required to propel the vehicle. However, producing finely sharpened edges through casting is challenging due to the risk of ...

Laser-Based Door Localization for Autonomous Mobile Service Robots.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
For autonomous mobile service robots, closed doors that are in their way are restricting obstacles. In order to open doors with on-board manipulation skills, a robot needs to be able to localize the door's key features, such as the hinge and handle, ...

Accuracy of robot-assisted stereotactic MRI-guided laser ablation in children with epilepsy.

Journal of neurosurgery. Pediatrics
OBJECTIVE: Robot-assisted (RA) stereotactic MRI-guided laser ablation has been reported to be a safe and effective technique for the treatment of epileptogenic foci in children and adults. In this study the authors aimed to assess the accuracy of RA ...

Stereotactic robot-assisted MRI-guided laser interstitial thermal therapy thalamotomy for medically intractable Parkinson's disease tremor: technical note and preliminary effects on 2 cases.

Acta neurochirurgica
BACKGROUND: Medically intractable Parkinson's disease (PD) tremor is a common difficult clinical situation with major impact on patient's quality of life (QOL). Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective therapy but is not an option for many patien...
