PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to fabricate an anthropomorphic multimodality pelvic phantom to evaluate a deep-learning-based synthetic computed tomography (CT) algorithm for magnetic resonance (MR)-only radiotherapy.
The Clavien-Dindo Classification (CDC) only reports the postoperative complication of highest grade. It is thus of limited value for radical cystectomy, after which patients usually experience multiple complications. The Comprehensive Complication I...
BACKGROUND: Lateral pelvic lymph node (LPLN) dissection is becoming increasingly important in the treatment of advanced low rectal cancer patients. However, the surgery has several disadvantages, including its technical complexity and high risk of ur...
Robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy requires a pneumoperitoneum combined with steep Trendelenburg positioning, and these conditions can be associated with impairment of cerebral autoregulation. The objective of this study was to determine if ch...
We present a fast and accurate analytical method for fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), using the extreme learning machine (ELM). We used extensive metrics to evaluate ELM and existing algorithms. First, we compared these algorithms usi...
BACKGROUND: Urogenital dysfunction is recognized as a serious complication affecting patient quality of life after rectal cancer surgery to treat rectal cancer; however, the studies focus on the urogenital function after robot-assisted rectal cancer ...

A bias in health research to favor understanding diseases as they present in men can have a grave impact on the health of women. This paper reports on a conceptual review of the literature on machine learning or natural language processing (NLP) tech...
We describe the first five robot-assisted radical prostatectomies (RARPs) performed with the new Hugo RAS system (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) in Europe. The five patients underwent RARP ± lymph node dissection at OLV Hospital (Aalst, Belgium). A...
