Our objective was to establish the incidence of positive surgical margins, recurrence patterns, and recurrence-free (RFS) and overall survival (OS) in a large cohort of patients undergoing robotic (robot-assisted radical cystectomy [RARC]) and open ...
Open surgery is the standard of care for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA). With the aim of oncologic radicality, it requires a complex major hepatectomy with biliary reconstruction. The postoperative course is consequently often complicated, with ...

Robot-assisted prostate intervention under magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guidance is a promising method to improve the clinical performance compared with the manual method. An MR conditional 6-DOF prostate intervention serial robot is developed an...
A lower-limb exoskeleton robot identifies the wearer's walking intention and assists the walking movement through mechanical force; thus, it is important to be able to identify the wearer's movement in real-time. Measurement of the angle of the knee ...
The work presented here is a novel biological approach for the compliant control of a robotic arm in real time (RT). We integrate a spiking cerebellar network at the core of a feedback control loop performing torque-driven control. The spiking cerebe...
BACKGROUND: Recent advances in robotics and deep learning can be used in endoscopic surgeries and can provide numerous advantages by freeing one of the surgeon's hands. This study aims to automatically detect the tip of the instrument, localize a poi...
In the field of robotics, sensors are crucial in enabling the interaction between robots and their users. To ensure this interaction, sensors mainly measure the user's strength, and based on this, wearable robots are controlled. In this paper, we pro...

BACKGROUND: Approximately 80% of individuals with chronic stroke present with long lasting upper extremity (UE) impairments. We designed the perSonalized UPper Extremity Rehabilitation (SUPER) intervention, which combines robotics, virtual reality ac...
Suction during robotic surgery has traditionally been performed by a bedside assistant. Adequately skilled assistants are not always available. We assessed a purpose-designed robotic surgeon-controlled suction catheter for efficiency and safety by c...
