Pseudoaneurysm occurs when the artery wall is damaged and the blood is contained by the surrounding tissues with the eventual formation of a fibrous sac communicating with the artery. We report a case of a 74-year-old man with inferior epigastric art...

Interaction forces between a robotic cuff and the skin during assisted walking with a lower limb exoskeleton may cause skin injuries over time, such as blisters and ulcers. This study proposes a sensing cuff that can monitor the contact behavior betw...
BACKGROUND: Minimal access surgery (MAS) is well-established in urological surgery. However, MAS is technically demanding and associated with a prolonged learning curve. Robot-assisted laparoscopy has made progress in overcoming these challenges.
The field of self-healing soft robots was initiated a few years ago. A healing ability can be integrated in soft robots by manufacturing their soft membranes out of synthetic self-healing polymers, more specifically elastomeric Diels-Alder (DA) netwo...
Robot-assisted rehabilitation is an appealing strategy for patients after stroke, as it generates repetitive movements in a consistent, precise, and automated manner. To identify patients who will benefit most from robotic rehabilitation for upper ...

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a widespread, life-altering injury leading to impairment of sensorimotor function that, while once thought to be permanent, is now being treated with the hope of one day being able to restore function. Surface electromyogr...
Specimen pathology findings collectively impact the long-term outcomes of robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy. Since seminal vesicle invasion (SVI) is an important independent predictor of biochemical recurrence (BCR), this study was designed ...
In recent years, as the mechanical structure of humanoid robots increasingly resembles the human form, research on pedestrian navigation technology has become of great significance for the development of humanoid robot navigation systems. To solve th...
