The ideal couch tracking system-Requirements and evaluation of current systems.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
INTRODUCTION: Intrafractional motion can cause substantial uncertainty in precision radiotherapy. Traditionally, the target volume is defined to be sufficiently large to cover the tumor in every position. With the robotic treatment couch, a real-time...

Twin Robotic X-Ray System for 3D Cone-Beam CT of the Wrist: An Evaluation of Image Quality and Radiation Dose.

AJR. American journal of roentgenology
The purpose of this study was to assess image quality and radiation dose of a novel twin robotic x-ray system's 3D cone-beam CT (CBCT) function for the depiction of cadaveric wrists. Sixteen cadaveric wrists were scanned using dedicated low-dose an...

Validating robotic couch isocentricity with 3D surface imaging.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
BACKGROUND: A proton therapy system with 190° gantries uses robotic couch rotations to change the treatment beam laterality. Couch rotations are typically validated clinically with post-rotation radiographic imaging.

Differentiation Between Anteroposterior and Posteroanterior Chest X-Ray View Position With Convolutional Neural Networks.

RoFo : Fortschritte auf dem Gebiete der Rontgenstrahlen und der Nuklearmedizin
PURPOSE:  Detection and validation of the chest X-ray view position with use of convolutional neural networks to improve meta-information for data cleaning within a hospital data infrastructure.

Technical Note: Deep Learning approach for automatic detection and identification of patient positioning devices for radiation therapy.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Automatic detection and identification of setup devices, using a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) for real-time multiclass object detection, has the potential to reduce errors in the treatment delivery process by avoiding documentatio...

Robotic Locomotor Training Leads to Cardiovascular Changes in Individuals With Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury Over a 24-Week Rehabilitation Period: A Randomized Controlled Pilot Study.

Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: To describe the effect of robotic locomotor training (RLT) and activity-based training (ABT) on cardiovascular indices during various physiological positions in individuals with spinal cord injury.

Robot-assisted intrathoracic procedure for dumbbell tumour in the prone position.

Interactive cardiovascular and thoracic surgery
A 24-year-old man presented with a dumbbell-shaped right posterior mediastinal mass. The patient was placed in the prone position following general anaesthesia and intubation. After laminectomy and dissection of the dorsal part of the tumour using a ...

Full subcostal subxiphoid robotic-assisted radical thymectomy: preclinical cadaveric study for optimizing patient positioning, table settings, and port configuration.

Updates in surgery
Robotic subxiphoid transthoracic thymectomy showed several surgical advantages. Nevertheless, the intercostal insertion of trocars may lead to nerve injury with enhanced post-operative pain. Moreover, the dissection of peri-diaphragmatic mediastinal ...
