OBJECTIVES: In Japan, endoscopic resection (ER) is often used to treat esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) when invasion depths are diagnosed as EP-SM1, whereas ESCC cases deeper than SM2 are treated by surgical operation or chemoradiotherapy. ...
The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) is the most commonly used free flap in mastectomy reconstruction. Preoperative imaging techniques are routinely used to detect location, diameter and course of perforators, with direct intervention from ...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The quality of bowel preparation is an important factor that can affect the effectiveness of a colonoscopy. Several tools, such as the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS) and Ottawa Bowel Preparation Scale, have been developed ...
BACKGROUND: There is an ongoing debate about expanding the resection criteria for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) beyond the Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) guidelines. We sought to determine the factors that held the most prognostic weight in th...
Liver and hepatic tumor segmentation remains a challenging problem in Computer Tomography (CT) images analysis due to its shape variation and vague boundary. The general hypothesis says that deep learning methods produce improved results on medical i...
: Accurate lymph node (LN) status evaluation for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) patients is essential for surgical planning. This study aimed to develop and validate a prediction model for preoperative LN status evaluation in ICC patients. : A...

PURPOSE: To assess whether a machine-learning model based on texture analysis (TA) could yield a more accurate diagnosis in differentiating malignant haemangiopericytoma (HPC) from angiomatous meningioma (AM).
OBJECTIVE: To generate a nomogram based on preoperative parameters to predict the occurrence of a major complication within 30-days of robotic partial nephrectomy.
BACKGROUND: Computer navigation increases reproducibility compared to non-navigated total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Robotics navigation is a branch of computer navigation technology that might further improve accuracy of implant placement. The aim of ...
