The number of international benchmarking competitions is steadily increasing in various fields machine learning (ML) research and practice. So far, however, little known about the common practice as well bottlenecks faced by community tackling questions posed. To shed light on status quo algorithm development specific field biomedical imaging analysis, we designed an survey that was issued to all participants challenges conducted conjunction with IEEE ISBI 2021 MICCAI conferences (80 total)....
Exoscopes are a promising tool for neurosurgeons, offering improved visualisation and ergonomics compared with traditional surgical microscopes. They consist of an external scope that projects the field onto 2D or 3D monitor, providing wider view better access to site. Despite advantages, exoscopes present some limitations, such as need manual foot joystick repositioning, which can disrupt flow procedure increase risk user error. In this study, markerless visual-servoing approach autonomous...
Fetoscopy laser photocoagulation is a widely adopted procedure for treating Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS). The involves pathological anastomoses to restore physiological blood exchange among twins. particularly challenging, from the surgeon's side, due limited field of view, poor manoeuvrability fetoscope, visibility amniotic fluid turbidity, and variability in illumination. These challenges may lead increased surgery time incomplete ablation anastomoses, resulting persistent...
During running and walking the human centre of mass experiences a symmetric acceleration along mediolateral direction. This reported work shows how to exploit this knowledge correct misalignments axes trunk‐mounted accelerometer with respect body axes. After vertical alignment, based on gravitational component signal, technique computes virtual rotation angle lying in horizontal plane. The chosen minimises autocorrelation signal
The diffusion of technologies for high speed data transmission over the Internet and growing employment new multimedia services require fast effective techniques protection against network attacks. In this paper we present a approach able to detect at same time different types anomalies. It consists in simultaneous analysis several traffic descriptors (aggregated through sketch guarantee scalability algorithm) by means single vectorial algorithm. terms ROC curve, performance our...
Objective: In the last years, Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is establishing as elected treatment for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Reduced field of view, occlusions by surgical tools, and reduced maneuverability may potentially cause accidents, such unwanted vessel resection with consequent bleeding. Surgical Data Science (SDS) can provide effective context-aware tools supporting surgeons. However, currently no have been exploited automatic vessels segmentation from laparoscopic...
In twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), abnormal vascular anastomoses in the monochorionic placenta can produce uneven blood flow between two fetuses. current practice, TTTS is treated surgically by closing using laser ablation. This surgery minimally invasive and relies on fetoscopy. Limited field of view makes anastomosis identification a challenging task for surgeon.
Vocal folds motility evaluation is paramount in both the assessment of functional deficits and accurate staging neoplastic disease glottis. Diagnostic endoscopy, particular videoendoscopy, nowadays method through which estimated. The clinical diagnosis, however, relies on examination videoendoscopic frames, a subjective professional-dependent task. Hence, more rigorous, objective, reliable, repeatable needed. To support clinicians, this paper proposes machine learning (ML) approach for vocal...
Fetoscopy laser photocoagulation is a widely used procedure for the treatment of Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS), that occur in mono-chorionic multiple pregnancies due to placental vascular anastomoses. This particularly challenging limited field view, poor manoeuvrability fetoscope, visibility fluid turbidity, variability light source, and unusual position placenta. may lead increased procedural time incomplete ablation, resulting persistent TTTS. Computer-assisted intervention...
Abstract Purpose Fetoscopic laser photocoagulation of placental anastomoses is the most effective treatment for twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS). A robust mosaic placenta and its vascular network could support surgeons’ exploration by enlarging fetoscope field-of-view. In this work, we propose a learning-based framework field-of-view expansion from intra-operative video frames. Methods While current state art fetoscopic mosaicking builds upon registration anatomical landmarks which...

The introduction of a surgical microscope in neurosurgery increased the spectrum and safety interventions. surgeon operates with both hands on patient while also controlling visualization system to provide proper view. Despite benefits microscope, low ergonomics may lead long-term effects muscu- loskeletal system. bulky binocular limit setup’s flexibility, hindering robotics integration into operating theatre. Recently, exoscopes overcame those limitations by enabling flexible ergonomic...
