In this article, we focus on the important role of robot-assisted coronary surgery by reporting the successful case of a morbidly obese male (body mass index = 58 kg/m) who presented to our center with severe coronary disease. A 54-year-old morbidly ...
OBJECTIVE: Robot-assisted minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (RA-MIDCAB) surgery and hybrid coronary revascularization (HCR) are minimally invasive alternative strategies to conventional coronary artery bypass surgery in patients with i...

OBJECTIVE: Early revascularization of the occluded coronary artery in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been demonstrated to decrease mortality and morbidity. Currently, physicians rely on features of electrocardiograms (EC...
Background CT imaging of chronic total occlusion (CTO) is useful in guiding revascularization, but manual reconstruction and quantification are time consuming. Purpose To develop and validate a deep learning (DL) model for automated CTO reconstructio...
This study was to show the impact of 'prostate-muscle index (PMI)', which we developed as a novel pelvic cavity measurement, in patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). We defined PMI as the 'distance between the inner edge of...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Robotics has been used in multiple areas of procedural medical intervention. Robotic percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been available since 2004. Its adoption has been slow with initial application in simple cases.
INTRODUCTION: Robotics in percutaneous coronary intervention (R-PCI) has been one such area of advancement where potential benefits may include reduced operator radiation exposure, improved outcomes, and reduced rate of adverse events. Limited data e...
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and stable coronary artery disease (CAD) previously revascularized with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are at high risk of recurrent ischemic events. We aimed to provide real-...
