Verification of the machine delivery parameters of a treatment plan via deep learning.

Physics in medicine and biology
We developed a generative adversarial network (GAN)-based deep learning approach to estimate the multileaf collimator (MLC) aperture and corresponding monitor units (MUs) from a given 3D dose distribution. The proposed design of the adversarial netwo...

Re-evaluation of possible vulnerable sites in the lateral pelvic cavity to local recurrence during robot-assisted total mesorectal excision.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Despite mechanical and technical improvements in laparoscopic and robot-assisted (LAR) rectal cancer procedures, the absence of prognostic disparities among various approaches cannot improve the quality of TME. The present study re-evalua...

Operative and long-term oncological outcomes in patients undergoing robotic versus laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to compare short- and long-term outcomes after robotic versus laparoscopic approach in patients undergoing curative surgery for rectal cancer.

Urological and sexual function after robotic and laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer: A systematic review, meta-analysis and meta-regression.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: This systematic review sought to compare the urogenital functions after laparoscopic (LAP) and robotic (ROB) surgery for rectal cancer.

Machine learning for predicting pathological complete response in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.

Scientific reports
For patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC), achieving a pathological complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) provides them with the optimal prognosis. However, no reliable prediction model is presently available...

Robotic multivisceral pelvic resection: experience from an exenteration unit.

Techniques in coloproctology
BACKGROUND: Pelvic exenteration remains a viable and effective treatment option for the management of locally advanced or recurrent pelvic malignancy. The aim of this study was to present an early experience of robotic multivisceral resection of pelv...
