Mastering microsurgical skills is essential for neurosurgical trainees. Video-based analysis of target tissue changes and surgical instrument motion provides an objective, quantitative method for assessing microsurgical proficiency, potentially enhan...
BACKGROUND: In the German medical billing system, surgical departments encode their procedures in OPS-codes. These OPS-codes have major impact on DRG grouping and thus mainly determine each case“s revenue. In our study, we investigate the ability of ...
BACKGROUND: Perioperative education is crucial for optimizing outcomes in neuroendovascular procedures, where inadequate understanding can heighten patient anxiety and hinder care plan adherence. Current education models, reliant on traditional consu...

BACKGROUND: The increasing use of endovascular techniques has greatly decreased the number of intracranial aneurysms treated with open surgery. The objective of this study is to quantify chief residents' experience and comfort level with clipping of ...
Despite substantial advances in engineering, robotics, and artificial intelligence, autonomous robots have yet to revolutionize neurosurgery. In this perspective, we examine why neurosurgical robotics lag behind, analyzing economic, regulatory, liabi...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly applied in diagnostic neurosurgery, enhancing precision and decision-making in neuro-oncology, vascular, functional, and spinal subspecialties. Despite its potential, variability in outcomes ne...

PURPOSE: This work presents a novel multimodal imaging platform that integrates hyperspectral imaging (HSI) and probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) for improved brain tumor identification during neurosurgery. By combining these two modal...
Large-language models (LLMs) have shown the capability to effectively answer medical board examination questions. However, their ability to answer imagebased questions has not been examined. This study sought to evaluate the performance of two LLMs (...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) has become an increasingly prominent tool in the field of neurosurgery, revolutionizing various aspects of patient care and surgical practices. AI-powered systems can provide real-time feedback to surgeons, en...
