Intraoperative MRI has been increasingly used to robotically deliver electrodes and catheters into the human brain using a linear trajectory with great clinical success. Current cranial MR guided robotics do not allow for continuous real-time imaging...
INTRODUCTION: Deep learning may be able to assist with the prediction of neurosurgical inpatient outcomes. The aims of this study were to investigate deep learning and transfer learning in the prediction of several inpatient outcomes including timing...
INTRODUCTION: Machine learning algorithms have received increased attention in neurosurgical literature for improved accuracy over traditional predictive methods. In this review, the authors sought to assess current applications of machine learning f...
INTRODUCTION: Video-based review of surgical procedures has proven to be useful in training by enabling efficiency in the qualitative assessment of surgical skill and intraoperative decision-making. Current video segmentation protocols focus largely ...

OBJECTIVES: Manually-collected suturing technical skill scores are strong predictors of continence recovery after robotic radical prostatectomy. Herein, we automate suturing technical skill scoring through computer vision (CV) methods as a scalable m...
Over the past 10 years, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has shown significant benefits compared to conventional surgical techniques, with reduced trauma, shorter hospital stays, and shorter patient recovery times. In neurosurgical MIS procedures, in...
OBJECTIVE: Technological advances have significantly fostered the use of robotics in neurosurgery. Due to their novelty, there is a need to develop training methods within neurosurgical residency programs that provide trainees the skills to utilize t...
PURPOSE: Over 4.83 million spine surgery procedures are performed annually around the world. With the considerable caseload and the precision needed to achieve optimal spinal instrumentation, technical progress has helped to improve the technique's s...
Neurosurgery is mainly for the treatment of head trauma, cerebrovascular disease, brain tumors, and spinal cord disorders. These operations are difficult and risky, so disability and mortality are high. To reduce the risk of surgery, reduce postopera...
