OBJECTIVES: To reveal the force profiles recorded by haptic autonomous robotic force feedback during the transcrestal sinus floor elevation (TSFE) process, providing a reference for the surgery strategy during TSFE.
BACKGROUND: Recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) palsy is a common complication in esophagectomy and its main risk factor is reportedly intraoperative procedure associated with surgeons' experience. We aimed to improve surgeons' recognition of the RLN dur...
Japanese neurosurgery faces challenges such as a declining number of neurosurgeons and their concentration in urban areas. Particularly in rural areas, access to neurosurgical care for patients with conditions, such as stroke, is limited, raising con...
A robotic needle implant device for MR-guided high-dose-rate (HDR) prostate brachytherapy was developed. This study aimed to assess the feasibility and spatial accuracy of HDR brachytherapy using the robotic device, for a single intraprostatic target...
PURPOSE: To construct a quantitative evaluation system for hand tremor during internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling and investigate changes in hand tremor attributable to the use of the customized passive surgical support robot.
