Conventional vs machine learning-based treatment planning in prostate brachytherapy: Results of a Phase I randomized controlled trial.

Brachytherapy
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the noninferiority of Day 30 dosimetry between a machine learning-based treatment planning system for prostate low-dose-rate (LDR) brachytherapy and the conventional, manual planning technique. As a ...

Comparison of medium-term survival outcomes between robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery in treating primary lung cancer.

General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery
OBJECTIVES: Robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) for primary lung cancer has been spreading rapidly in Japan. While RATS has various technical advantages over video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), the quality of surgery from an oncologi...

Dynamic readmission prediction using routine postoperative laboratory results after radical cystectomy.

Urologic oncology
OBJECTIVE: To determine if the addition of electronic health record data enables better risk stratification and readmission prediction after radical cystectomy. Despite efforts to reduce their frequency and severity, complications and readmissions fo...

Is obesity a contraindication for kidney donation?

Surgical endoscopy
INTRODUCTION: To enlarge the donor pool, kidney donors with obesity have been considered. We hypothesized that it is safe for patients with obesity to serve as living kidney donors.

The influence of hemodynamics on graft patency prediction model based on support vector machine.

Journal of biomechanics
In the existing patency prediction model of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), the characteristics are based on graft flow, but no researchers selected hemodynamic factors as the characteristics. The purpose of this paper is to study whether the...

Effect of bladder neck sparing at robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy on postoperative continence rates and biochemical recurrence.

Urologic oncology
OBJECTIVES: Previous studies reported improved continence recovery by bladder neck sparing (BNS) in prostate cancer patients treated with robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP), without compromising biochemical recurrence (BCR). We ...

Deep-learning model for predicting 30-day postoperative mortality.

British journal of anaesthesia
BACKGROUND: Postoperative mortality occurs in 1-2% of patients undergoing major inpatient surgery. The currently available prediction tools using summaries of intraoperative data are limited by their inability to reflect shifting risk associated with...

Fully Automated Postlumpectomy Breast Margin Assessment Utilizing Convolutional Neural Network Based Optical Coherence Tomography Image Classification Method.

Academic radiology
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to develop a deep learning classification approach to distinguish cancerous from noncancerous regions within optical coherence tomography (OCT) images of breast tissue for potential use in an intraoperative s...
