OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to develop an automated method for pulmonary artery and vein segmentation in both left and right lungs from computed tomography (CT) images using artificial intelligence (AI). The segmentations were evaluated using PulmoS...
BACKGROUND: A real-time deep learning system was developed to identify the extrahepatic bile ducts during indocyanine green fluorescence-guided laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
In neuroendovascular surgery, operators must manipulate devices, such as microcatheters and guidewires, with millimeter precision while simultaneously monitoring multiple areas across up to four radiography monitors. Although both operators and assis...
