BACKGROUND: Thyroid nodules are frequent in clinical settings, and their diagnosis in adults is growing, with some persons experiencing symptoms. Ultrasound-guided thermal ablation can shrink nodules and alleviate discomfort. Because the degree and r...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The effectiveness of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in improving long-term survival outcomes for patients with a solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) measuring 5 cm or less remains uncertain. This study was designed to elu...
Digital surgery technologies, such as interventional robotics and sensor systems, not only improve patient care but also aid in the development and optimization of traditional invasive treatments and methods. Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most comm...
Microneedle puncture is a standard minimally invasive treatment and surgical method, which is widely used in extracting blood, tissues, and their secretions for pathological examination, needle-puncture-directed drug therapy, local anaesthesia, micro...
BACKGROUND: Several ablation confirmation software methods for minimum ablative margin assessment have recently been developed to improve local outcomes for patients undergoing thermal ablation of colorectal liver metastases. Previous assessments wer...

To study the effect of computerized tomography (CT) images based on deep learning algorithms on the diagnosis of pulmonary nodules and the effect of radiofrequency ablation (RFA), the -shaped fully convolutional neural network (FCNN) (-Net) was enhan...
This study aimed to detect and diagnose the lung nodules as early as possible to effectively treat them, thereby reducing the burden on the medical system and patients. A lung computed tomography (CT) image segmentation algorithm was constructed base...
