BACKGROUND: In addition to ensuring cancer control, prevention of incontinence which significantly impact patients' quality of life, is also an important issue in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) operations. In this study, we aimed to find...
BACKGROUND: In the field of robotic surgery, there is a lack of comparative evidence on surgical and functional outcomes of different robotic platforms.
At ultrahigh field strengths images of the body are hampered by B -field inhomogeneities. These present themselves as inhomogeneous signal intensity and contrast, which is regarded as a "bias field" to the ideal image. Current bias field correction m...

BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in men worldwide, affecting around 1.4 million individuals. Current PCa diagnosis relies on histological analysis of prostate biopsy samples, an activity that is both time-cons...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Image-guided clinical diagnosis can be achieved by automatically and accurately segmenting prostate and prostatic cancer in male pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images. For accurate tumor removal, the location, numbe...
. UNet-based deep-learning (DL) architectures are promising dose engines for traditional linear accelerator (Linac) models. Current UNet-based engines, however, were designed differently with various strategies, making it challenging to fairly compar...
