Efficient and effective cell segmentation of neuroendocrine tumor (NET) in whole slide scanned images is a difficult task due to a large number of cells. The weak or misleading cell boundaries also present significant challenges. In this paper, we pr...
Robotic system has been increasingly used in pancreatectomy. However, the effectiveness of this method remains uncertain. This study compared the surgical outcomes between robot-assisted laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy and conventional laparoscopi...
BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP) is increasing in popularity thanks to the benefits that have been recently demonstrated by many authors. The Da Vinci(®) Surgical System could overcome some limits of laparoscopy, helping the surge...

BACKGROUND: The indications for minimally invasive (MIS) pancreatectomy have slowly increased as experience, techniques, and technology have improved and evolved to manage malignant lesions in selected patients without compromising safety and oncolog...
BACKGROUND: The in silico analyses provide evidence supporting the potential of methylation-driven differentially expressed genes as therapeutic targets across cancer types. This leads us to identify novel targets and their associated drug compounds ...
BACKGROUND: Robotic central pancreatectomy is increasingly used for pre- or low-grade malignant tumors in the pancreatic body balancing preservation of pancreatic function while removing the target lesion. Today, there is no established reconstructio...
: Early detection of oncological diseases such as pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and ovarian cancer (OV) is pivotal for successful treatment but remains a significant challenge due to the lack of sensitive and specific diagnostic tests. Fluo...
