Surgical Excision of Advanced Endometriosis: Perioperative Outcomes and Impacting Factors.

Journal of minimally invasive gynecology
OBJECTIVE: To determine perioperative outcomes and factors impacting operating time, length of hospital stay, and complications of patients undergoing surgery for stage 3 or 4 endometriosis.

The IDEAL prospective development study format for reporting surgical innovations. An illustrative case study of robotic oesophagectomy.

International journal of surgery (London, England)
BACKGROUND: The early development of innovative surgical procedures is usually reported as retrospective case series, wasting opportunities to provide useful information and introducing bias. We present a report of an innovative procedure in developm...

Support vector machine classification of brain metastasis and radiation necrosis based on texture analysis in MRI.

Journal of magnetic resonance imaging : JMRI
PURPOSE: To develop a classification model using texture features and support vector machine in contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images to differentiate between brain metastasis and radiation necrosis.

Assessment of a Four-View Mammographic Image Feature Based Fusion Model to Predict Near-Term Breast Cancer Risk.

Annals of biomedical engineering
The purpose of this study was to develop and assess a new quantitative four-view mammographic image feature based fusion model to predict the near-term breast cancer risk of the individual women after a negative screening mammography examination of i...

Robot-assisted gait training might be beneficial for more severely affected children with cerebral palsy.

Developmental neurorehabilitation
PURPOSE: Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) can complement conventional therapies in children with cerebral palsy. We investigated changes in walking-related outcomes between children with different Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS)...

A novel technique for robot assisted latissimus dorsi flap harvest.

Journal of plastic, reconstructive & aesthetic surgery : JPRAS
BACKGROUND: A robotic surgery technique of harvesting the latissimus dorsi muscle flap has technical advantages over endoscopic harvest and cosmetic advantages over the open technique. The authors introduce a new transaxillary gasless technique using...

Predictive modeling in pediatric traumatic brain injury using machine learning.

BMC medical research methodology
BACKGROUND: Pediatric traumatic brain injury (TBI) constitutes a significant burden and diagnostic challenge in the emergency department (ED). While large North American research networks have derived clinical prediction rules for the head injured ch...
