BACKGROUND: Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is the reference standard surgical treatment for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) related to benign prostatic enlargement. The aim of this study was to investigate the response rate follow...
BACKGROUND: Frameless stereotactic biopsies, particularly robot-assisted procedures are increasing in neurosurgery centers. Results of these procedures should be at least equal to or greater than frame-based reference procedure. Evaluate robot-assist...
Tongue base (TB) narrowing is recognized as a significant site of upper airway collapse during sleep in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients and robot technology is expected to have promising clinical utility in OSA patients with TB narrowing. The ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Radiation pneumonitis (RP) is a radiotherapy dose-limiting toxicity for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC). Prior studies have proposed relevant dosimetric constraints to limit this toxicity. Using machine ...
Head motion (HM) during fMRI acquisition can significantly affect measures of brain activity or connectivity even after correction with preprocessing methods. Moreover, any systematic relationship between HM and variables of interest can introduce sy...
OBJECTIVE: To assess the sensitivity and specificity of arteriovenous malformation (AVM) nidal component identification and quantification using an unsupervised machine learning algorithm and to evaluate the association between intervening nidal brai...
We hypothesized that expert epileptologists can detect seizures directly by visually analyzing EEG plot images, unlike automated methods that analyze spectro-temporal features or complex, non-stationary features of EEG signals. If so, seizure detecti...
BACKGROUND: Early diagnosis of skin cancer lesions by dermoscopy, the gold standard in dermatological imaging, calls for a diagnostic upscale. The aim of the study was to improve the accuracy of dermoscopic skin cancer diagnosis through use of novel ...
OBJECTIVE: The In-hospital length of stay (LOS) is expected to increase as cardiovascular diseases complexity increases and the population ages. This will affect healthcare systems especially with the current situation of decreased bed capacity and i...
