Investigating the clinical advantages of a robotic linac equipped with a multileaf collimator in the treatment of brain and prostate cancer patients.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of a commercially avail-able CyberKnife system with a multileaf collimator (CK-MLC) for stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and standard fractionated intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) ...

Robot-Guided Atomic Force Microscopy for Mechano-Visual Phenotyping of Cancer Specimens.

Microscopy and microanalysis : the official journal of Microscopy Society of America, Microbeam Analysis Society, Microscopical Society of Canada
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and other forms of scanning probe microscopy have been successfully used to assess biomechanical and bioelectrical characteristics of individual cells. When extending such approaches to heterogeneous tissue, there exists...

Test-retest reliability of KINARM robot sensorimotor and cognitive assessment: in pediatric ice hockey players.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Better diagnostic and prognostic tools are needed to address issues related to early diagnosis and management of concussion across the continuum of aging but particularly in children and adolescents. The purpose of the current study was t...

Transurethral versus suprapubic catheter at robot-assisted radical prostatectomy: a prospective randomized trial with 1-year follow-up.

World journal of urology
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate urethral catheter (UC) versus suprapubic tube (SPT) without stenting the anastomosis at robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RALP) regarding surgical outcome and catheter-associated discomfort. One year after surgery, continen...

Trans-oral robotic cleft surgery (TORCS) for palate and posterior pharyngeal wall reconstruction: A feasibility study.

Journal of plastic, reconstructive & aesthetic surgery : JPRAS
BACKGROUND/AIM: Robot-assisted surgery has become increasingly routine, replacing open and laparoscopic techniques in certain domains, with recent extension to head and neck surgery through trans-oral access. Some advantages of the robot-assisted sur...

Single-bundle ACL reconstruction with and without extra-articular reconstruction: evaluation with robotic lower leg rotation testing and patient satisfaction scores.

Knee surgery, sports traumatology, arthroscopy : official journal of the ESSKA
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare the biomechanical characteristics and patient outcomes after either isolated intraarticular ACL reconstruction or intraarticular reconstruction with lateral extra-articular tenodesis. In addition, we ...

Emergence of Leadership in a Group of Autonomous Robots.

PloS one
In this paper we examine the factors contributing to the emergence of leadership in a group, and we explore the relationship between the role of the leader and the behavioural capabilities of other individuals. We use a simulation technique where a g...

Robot-Mediated Imitation Skill Training for Children With Autism.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) impacts 1 in 68 children in the U.S., with tremendous individual and societal costs. Technology-aided intervention, more specifically robotic intervention, has gained momentum in recent years due to the inherent affinit...
