Hippocampal reverse replay, a phenomenon in which recently active hippocampal cells reactivate in the reverse order, is thought to contribute to learning, particularly reinforcement learning (RL), in animals. Here, we present a novel computational mo...
BACKGROUND: The Global Evaluative Assessment of Robotic Skills (GEARS) rubric provides a measure of skill in robotic surgery. We hypothesize surgery performed by more experienced operators will be associated with higher GEARS scores.
The original stereoelectroencephalography frame-based implantation technique has been proven to be safe and effective. But this procedure is complicated and time-consuming. With the development of modern robotic technology, robot-guided intracerebral...
INTRODUCTION: Despite the importance of simulation-based training for robotic surgery, there is no consensus about its training curricula. Recently, a virtual reality (VR) platform (SimNow, Intuitive, Inc) was introduced with 33 VR drills but without...
To evaluate the feasibility and intraoperative technical parameters of the new robot-assisted surgical system Avatera by performing bilateral nephrectomy in a live porcine model. Six pigs underwent bilateral robot-assisted radical nephrectomy using...
Soft robotic hands are inherently safer and more compliant in robot-environment interaction than rigid manipulators, but their flexibility and versatility still need improving. In this article, a gesture adaptive soft-rigid robotic hand is proposed. ...
The present study used triggered electromyographic (EMG) testing as a tool to determine the safety of pedicle screw placement. In this Institutional Review Board exempt review, data from 151 consecutive patients (100 robotic; 51 non-robotic) who had ...

OBJECTIVES: To compare the postoperative outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy when only the inner layer is sutured (single-layer technique with soft coagulation) with those when sutures are placed in the inner and outer layers (double-layer...
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted rectal resections are said to overcome the known difficulties of laparoscopic rectal surgery through technical advantages, leading to better treatment results; however, published studies reported very heterogeneous results....
