Initial introduction of robot-assisted, minimally invasive esophagectomy using the microanatomy-based concept in the upper mediastinum.

Surgical endoscopy Nov 10, 2020
BACKGROUND: We have recently standardized upper mediastinal lymph node dissection (UMLND) using a microanatomy-based concept in thoracoscopic esophagectomy in the prone position (TEPP), and introduced robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (...

Can artificial intelligence distinguish between malignant and benign mediastinal lymph nodes using sonographic features on EBUS images?

Current medical research and opinion Oct 24, 2020
AIMS: This study aimed to develop a new intelligent diagnostic approach using an artificial neural network (ANN). Moreover, we investigated whether the learning-method-guided quantitative analysis approach adequately described mediastinal lymphadenop...

Automated quantification of reference levels in liver and mediastinal blood pool for the Deauville therapy response classification using FDG-PET/CT in Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphomas.

Clinical physiology and functional imaging Oct 3, 2018
BACKGROUND: 18F-FDG-PET/CT has become a standard for assessing treatment response in patients with lymphoma. A subjective interpretation of the scan based on the Deauville 5-point scale has been widely adopted. However, inter-observer variability due...

Machine learning in the prediction of cardiac epicardial and mediastinal fat volumes.

Computers in biology and medicine Feb 24, 2017
We propose a methodology to predict the cardiac epicardial and mediastinal fat volumes in computed tomography images using regression algorithms. The obtained results indicate that it is feasible to predict these fats with a high degree of correlatio...

[Robot-assisted Thoracic Surgery for Mediastinal and Chest Wall Tumors:Atypical Surgical Approaches by the Tumor Localization].

Kyobu geka. The Japanese journal of thoracic surgery Jul 1, 2023
Surgery for mediastinal and chest wall tumors requires various approaches, including open and thoracoscopic, depending on the size and localization of the tumor. While robotic surgery for anterior mediastinal tumors has become a standardized approach...

[Robot-assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery for Mediastinal Tumors].

Kyobu geka. The Japanese journal of thoracic surgery Jul 1, 2023
The subxiphoid approach in thymectomy provides better visibility around the left brachiocephalic vein than the lateral thoracic approach. Robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery is easier to parform than video- assisted thoracoscopic surgery for surgery...

[Mullerian Cyst in the Posterior Mediastinum Resected by Robot-assisted Thoracic Surgery:Report of a Case].

Kyobu geka. The Japanese journal of thoracic surgery Mar 1, 2023
Mullerian cyst in the posterior mediastinum is a rare disorder. We report on the case of a woman in her 40s with a cystic nodule which is located in the right posterior mediastinum next to the vertebra at the level of tracheal bifurcation. The tumor ...

Robotic Mediastinal Surgery.

Thoracic surgery clinics Feb 1, 2023
The robotic platform can be viewed as an advanced thoracoscopic instrument and can be utilized for any pathology amenable to thoracoscopic surgery. This ultimately comes down to surgeon comfort, but many have demonstrated the robotic approach to be u...

Validation of a Deep Learning-based Automatic Detection Algorithm for Measurement of Endotracheal Tube-to-Carina Distance on Chest Radiographs.

Anesthesiology Dec 1, 2022
BACKGROUND: Improper endotracheal tube (ETT) positioning is frequently observed and potentially hazardous in the intensive care unit. The authors developed a deep learning-based automatic detection algorithm detecting the ETT tip and carina on portab...
