Tertiary disease prevention for dementia focuses on improving the quality of life of the patient. The quality of life of people with dementia (PwD) and their caregivers is hampered by the presence of behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia ...
Electronic skin (e-skin), which is an electronic surrogate of human skin, aims to recreate the multifunctionality of skin by using sensing units to detect multiple stimuli, while keeping key features of skin such as low thickness, stretchability, fle...
BACKGROUND:: Robotic partial hepatectomy is an important tool for the treatment of colorectal liver metastases, offering the benefits of a minimally invasive approach with advanced wristed motion, precision, and dexterity. We demonstrate the steps of...
In recent years, robot-assisted thoracic surgery is gaining more and widespread interest in Europe. Due to the narrow space and the complexity of anatomical structures, conventional minimally invasive mediastinal surgery may be challenging for the th...
Unplanned conversion from minimally invasive surgery (MIS) to open surgery is a significant challenge, although the frequency of conversion for robotic and laparoscopic kidney surgery is not well described. We aimed to compare rates of conversion fo...
The ability to navigate complex unstructured environments and carry out inspection tasks requires robots to be capable of climbing inclined surfaces and to be equipped with a sensor payload. These features are desirable for robots that are used to in...
