INTRODUCTION: Robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy (rPD) is a complex operation with a reported learning curve of 80 cases. Two recent graduates of a formal robotic complex general surgical oncology training program have been performing rPD at our institu...
BACKGROUND: High body mass index was considered as a risk factor for minimally invasive surgery. The short-term outcomes of robot-assisted pancreaticoduodenectomy (RPD) remain controversial. This study aims to investigate the feasibility and advantag...
BACKGROUND: The study aims to evaluate the performance of three advanced machine learning algorithms and a traditional Cox proportional hazard (CoxPH) model in predicting the overall survival (OS) of patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms ...
Pancreatic cancer is an aggressive disease that typically presents late with poor outcomes, indicating a pronounced need for early detection. In this study, we applied artificial intelligence methods to clinical data from 6 million patients (24,000 p...
Robotic surgery has technical advantages including high optical magnification and articulation of forceps. However, the surgical field tends to be narrow due to the high magnification, and the forceps have no tactile sensation. A case of severe intra...
BACKGROUND: Early detection of solid pancreatic masses through contrast-enhanced harmonic endoscopic ultrasound (CH-EUS) is important. But CH-EUS is difficult to learn.
BACKGROUND: Endosonographers are highly dependent on the diagnosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The objectives of this study were to develop a deep-learning radiomics (DLR) model based on endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) images for ide...
