A positive surgical margin (PSM) is reported to have some connection to the occurrence of biochemical recurrence and tumor metastasis in prostate cancer after the operation. There are no clinically usable models and the study is to predict the probab...
This paper presents the development of a visual-perception system on a dual-arm mobile robot for human-robot interaction. This visual system integrates three subsystems. Hand gesture recognition is utilized to trigger human-robot interaction. Engagem...
As the elderly population grows, there is a need for caregivers, which may become unsustainable for society. In this situation, the demand for automated help increases. One of the solutions is service robotics, in which robots have automation and sho...
Rehabilitation robotics aims to facilitate the rehabilitation procedure for patients and physical therapists. This field has a relatively long history dating back to the 1990s; however, their implementation and the standardisation of their applicatio...
An important issue in medical robotics is communication between physicians and robots. Speech-based communication is of particular advantage in robot-assisted surgery. It frees the surgeon's hands; hence, he can focus on the principal tasks. Man-mach...
BACKGROUND: The debate of whether to centralize hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery has been ongoing. The principal objective was to compare outcomes of a community pancreatic surgical program with those of high-volume academic centers.
PURPOSE: This study aimed to examine whether preoperative Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System v2 (PI-RADS v2) can predict pathological extracapsular extension (EPE) after radical prostatectomy. We also studied the preoperative factors which ca...

OBJECTIVE: To systematically review the effects of robotic rehabilitation with the Erigo device on patients with neurological injury on safety, spasticity, muscle strength, functionality, gait/balance, and changes in the level of consciousness.
User-oriented needs assessment of the potential use of assistive robots in direct nursing care: A mixed methods study So far, hardly any robots have been used in nursing that take over patient-related activities and thereby reduce the physical stra...
Optimal approach for lower anterior resection has been closely debated. The relatively new addition of the robotic approach adds a layer of complexity to this topic. The majority of the literature has compared the possible approaches between two tec...
