During the early six months after the onset of a stroke, patients usually remain disabled with limbs weakness and need intensive rehabilitation. An increased number of stroke patients is countered with a reduced number of physical therapists. The dev...
Robotic abdominal wall reconstruction is becoming an accepted technique to approach complex hernias in a minimally invasive fashion. There remain a deficit of high-quality data to suggest significant clinical benefit but current randomized trials are...
CONTEXT: Differences in recovery, oncological, and quality of life (QoL) outcomes between open radical cystectomy (ORC) and robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) for patients with bladder cancer are unclear.

PURPOSE: Integrating robotic scrub nurses in the operating room has the potential to help overcome staff shortages and limited use of available operating capacities in hospitals. Existing approaches of robotic scrub nurses are mainly focused on open ...
BACKGROUND: Collecting system entry in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy may occur even in cases showing a low N factor in the R.E.N.A.L nephrometry score. Therefore, in this study, we focused on the tumor contact surface area with the adjacent rena...
Robotic surgery has technical advantages including high optical magnification and articulation of forceps. However, the surgical field tends to be narrow due to the high magnification, and the forceps have no tactile sensation. A case of severe intra...
Dexterous robotic manipulation tasks depend on estimating the state of in-hand objects, particularly their orientation. Although cameras have been traditionally used to estimate the object's pose, tactile sensors have recently been studied due to the...
