Effects of ultrasound with an automatic vessel detection system using artificial intelligence on the selection of puncture points among ultrasound beginner clinical nurses.

The journal of vascular access
BACKGROUND: Ultrasound guidance increases the success rate of peripheral intravenous catheter placement. However, the longer time required to obtain ultrasound-guided access poses difficulties for ultrasound beginners. Notably, interpretation of ultr...

Strategy for automatic ultrasound (US) probe positioning in robot-assisted ultrasound guided radiation therapy.

Physics in medicine and biology
. As part of image-guided radiotherapy, ultrasound-guided radiotherapy is currently already in use and under investigation for robot assisted systems Ipsen 2021. It promises a real-time tumor localization during irradiation (intrafractional) without ...

Evaluating the Impact of Assessment Metrics for Simulated Central Venous Catheterization Training.

Simulation in healthcare : journal of the Society for Simulation in Healthcare
INTRODUCTION: Performance assessment and feedback are critical factors in successful medical simulation-based training. The Dynamic Haptic Robotic Trainer (DHRT) allows residents to practice ultrasound-guided needle insertions during simulated centra...

A Deep Learning-based Method to Extract Lumen and Media-Adventitia in Intravascular Ultrasound Images.

Ultrasonic imaging
Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging allows direct visualization of the coronary vessel wall and is suitable for assessing atherosclerosis and the degree of stenosis. Accurate segmentation and lumen and median-adventitia (MA) measurements from IVU...

Free-hand, transrectal ultrasound-guided hydrodissection of the retroprostatic space during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy: Impact on the learning curve.

Urologic oncology
BACKGROUND: Aim of the current study is to describe our technique of hydrodissection (HD) of the retroprostatic space (RPS) performed between the Denonvillier's fascia (DF) and prostatic capsule (PC) and to evaluate its impact on the outcomes of nerv...

Robot-assisted vs ultrasonography-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block vs local anaesthesia in urology: results of the UROTAP randomized trial.

BJU international
OBJECTIVES: To prospectively analyse robotically administered transperitoneal transversus abdominis plane (robot-assisted transversus abdominis plane [RTAP]) compared with both ultrasonography-guided transversus abdominis plane (UTAP) and local anaes...

Does proximal versus distal injury location of the medial ulnar collateral ligament of the elbow differentially impact elbow stability? An ultrasound-guided and robot-assisted biomechanical study.

Journal of shoulder and elbow surgery
BACKGROUND: The location (proximal vs. distal) of elbow medial ulnar collateral ligament (MUCL) tears impacts clinical outcomes of nonoperative treatment. The purposes of our study were to (1) determine whether selective releases of the MUCL could be...

The challenges facing deep learning-based catheter localization for ultrasound guided high-dose-rate prostate brachytherapy.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Automated catheter localization for ultrasound guided high-dose-rate prostate brachytherapy faces challenges relating to imaging noise and artifacts. To date, catheter reconstruction during the clinical procedure is performed manually. De...

Exploring the utility of assistive artificial intelligence for ultrasound scanning in regional anesthesia.

Regional anesthesia and pain medicine
INTRODUCTION: Ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia (UGRA) involves the acquisition and interpretation of ultrasound images to delineate sonoanatomy. This study explores the utility of a novel artificial intelligence (AI) device designed to assist in...
