Microsurgery Robots: Applications, Design, and Development.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Microsurgical techniques have been widely utilized in various surgical specialties, such as ophthalmology, neurosurgery, and otolaryngology, which require intricate and precise surgical tool manipulation on a small scale. In microsurgery, operations ...

Quantitative noninvasive measurement of cerebrospinal fluid flow in shunted hydrocephalus.

Journal of neurosurgery
OBJECTIVE: Standard MRI protocols lack a quantitative sequence that can be used to evaluate shunt-treated patients with a history of hydrocephalus. The objective of this study was to investigate the use of phase-contrast MRI (PC-MRI), a quantitative ...

Towards Precision Medicine in Spinal Surgery: Leveraging AI Technologies.

Annals of biomedical engineering
This critique explores the implications of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) technology, specifically OpenAI's advanced language model GPT-4 and its interface, ChatGPT, into the field of spinal surgery. It examines the potential effects of alg...

Surgical Robotics for Intracerebral Hemorrhage Treatment: State of the Art and Future Directions.

Annals of biomedical engineering
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a stroke subtype with high mortality and disability, and there are no proven medical treatments that can improve the functional outcome of ICH patients. Robot-assisted neurosurgery is a significant advancement in the...

Neurosurgical skills analysis by machine learning models: systematic review.

Neurosurgical review
Machine learning (ML) models are being actively used in modern medicine, including neurosurgery. This study aimed to summarize the current applications of ML in the analysis and assessment of neurosurgical skills. We conducted this systematic review ...

Precise Brain-shift Prediction by New Combination of W-Net Deep Learning for Neurosurgical Navigation.

Neurologia medico-chirurgica
Brain tissue deformation during surgery significantly reduces the accuracy of image-guided neurosurgeries. We generated updated magnetic resonance images (uMR) in this study to compensate for brain shifts after dural opening using a convolutional neu...

The role of an open artificial intelligence platform in modern neurosurgical education: a preliminary study.

Neurosurgical review
The use of artificial intelligence in neurosurgical education has been growing in recent times. ChatGPT, a free and easily accessible language model, has been gaining popularity as an alternative education method. It is necessary to explore the poten...

Dexterity enhancement of continuum robot for natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery in the dual-manipulator collaborative space.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Suturing and knotting in Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (NOTES) requires the robot not only to be able to work with multiple manipulators but also to have a high degree of dexterity. However, little attention has been pai...
