Functionalized Spiral-Rolling Millirobot for Upstream Swimming in Blood Vessel.

Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany)
Untethered small robots with multiple functions show considerable potential as next-generation catheter-free systems for biomedical applications. However, owing to dynamic blood flow, even effective upstream swimming in blood vessels remains a challe...

Force and Velocity Based Puncture Detection in Robot Assisted Retinal Vein Cannulation: In-Vivo Study.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Retinal vein cannulation is a technically demanding surgical procedure and its feasibility may rely on using advanced surgical robots equipped with force-sensing microneedles. Reliable detection of the moment of venous puncture is importan...

Modeling of the dynamics of vascular embolization by using porous media for the design of injection robots of embolic agents.

Medical engineering & physics
Embolization is the prevailing therapy for tumor-targeting, anti-organ hyperfunction, and hemostasis. However, the injection of embolic agents largely depends on the experiences of doctors as assisted by X-ray, which will negate the health of the doc...

A CNN-based method to reconstruct 3-D spine surfaces from US images in vivo.

Medical image analysis
Three-dimensional (3-D) reconstruction of the spine surface is of strong clinical relevance for the diagnosis and prognosis of spine disorders and intra-operative image guidance. In this paper, we report a new technique to reconstruct lumbar spine su...

Transcorneal delivery of topically applied silver nanoparticles does not delay epithelial wound healing.

NanoImpact
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are a common antimicrobial additive for a variety of applications, including wound care. However, AgNPs often undergo dissolution resulting in release of silver ions, with subsequent toxicity to mammalian cells. The corne...

Early pregnancy diagnosis of rabbits: A non-invasive approach using Vis-NIR spatially resolved spectroscopy.

Spectrochimica acta. Part A, Molecular and biomolecular spectroscopy
Pregnancy diagnosis is essential for rabbit's reproductive management. The early identification of non-pregnant rabbits allows for earlier re-insemination, increases the service rate, and reduces the laboring interval in commercial operations. The ob...

Predicting wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) using DARC (detecting apoptosing retinal cells) AI (artificial intelligence) technology.

Expert review of molecular diagnostics
OBJECTIVES: To assessĀ a recently described CNN (convolutional neural network) DARC (Detection of Apoptosing Retinal Cells) algorithm in predicting new Subretinal Fluid (SRF) formation in Age-related-Macular-Degeneration (AMD).

Use of a convolutional neural network and quantitative ultrasound for diagnosis of fatty liver.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) was used to classify rabbits that were induced to have liver disease by placing them on a fatty diet for a defined duration and/or periodically injecting them with CCl. The ground truth of the liver state was based on li...

Flow driven robotic navigation of microengineered endovascular probes.

Nature communications
Minimally invasive medical procedures, such as endovascular catheterization, have considerably reduced procedure time and associated complications. However, many regions inside the body, such as in the brain vasculature, still remain inaccessible due...

Machine learning to predict mesenchymal stem cell efficacy for cartilage repair.

PLoS computational biology
Inconsistent therapeutic efficacy of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in regenerative medicine has been documented in many clinical trials. Precise prediction on the therapeutic outcome of a MSC therapy based on the patient's conditions would provide va...
