Objective skill assessment-based personal performance feedback is a vital part of surgical training. Either kinematic-acquired through surgical robotic systems, mounted sensors on tooltips or wearable sensors-or visual input data can be employed to p...
A 69-year-old man was referred to the hepatobiliary surgeons for mild enlargement of an asymptomatic cystic liver lesion found on routine screening in 2017 that measured 3.7×3.6×4.3 cm. Work-up with MRI revealed a complex multilocular cyst that had e...
Expressing emotions through various modalities is a crucial function not only for humans but also for robots. The mapping method from facial expressions to the basic emotions is widely used in research on robot emotional expressions. This method clai...
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Surgeons should aim for continuous quality improvement. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of incremental changes to Robot Assisted Radical Prostatectomy (RARP) technique on intra-operative and early post-op...
BACKGROUND: The landscape of guided bronchoscopy for the sampling of pulmonary parenchymal lesions is evolving rapidly. Shape-sensing robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (ssRAB) recently was introduced as means to allow successful sampling of traditionally...
OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to present the surgical technique of robotic radical trachelectomy (RRT) for early-stage squamous cell cervical cancer in women with a desire to preserve fertility.

PURPOSE: Autonomous ultrasound imaging by robotic ultrasound scanning systems in complex soft uncertain clinical environments is important and challenging to assist in therapy. To cope with the complex environment faced by the ultrasound probe during...
Aiming at the crossing problem of complex terrain, to further improve the ability of obstacles crossing, this paper designs and develops an all-terrain wheel-legged hybrid robot (WLHR) with strong adaptability to the environment. According to the ope...
Area coverage is a crucial factor for a robot intended for applications such as floor cleaning, disinfection, and inspection. Robots with fixed shapes could not realize an adequate level of area coverage performance. Reconfigurable robots have been i...
Recent achievements in the field of computer vision, reinforcement learning, and locomotion control have largely extended legged robots' maneuverability in complex natural environments. However, little research focuses on sensing and analyzing the ph...
