Nerve Block Target Localization and Needle Guidance for Autonomous Robotic Ultrasound Guided Regional Anesthesia [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Visual servoing for the development of autonomous robotic systems capable of administering UltraSound (US) guided regional anesthesia requires real-time segmentation of nerves, needle tip localization and needle trajectory extrapolation. First, we recruited 227 patients to build a large dataset of 41,000 anesthesiologist annotated images from US videos

Origin variations and brachial plexus relationship of the dorsal scapular artery
Scientific Reports, 2023 The dorsal scapular artery can either be a direct branch of the subclavian artery or a branch of the transverse cervical artery. Origin variation is related to its relationship with the brachial plexus.

Multiple Instance Segmentation in Brachial Plexus Ultrasound Image Using BPMSegNet [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 The identification of nerve is difficult as structures of nerves are challenging to image and to detect in ultrasound images. Nevertheless, the nerve identification in ultrasound images is a crucial step to improve performance of regional anesthesia.

Decentralized Learning Made Practical with Client Sampling [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Decentralized learning (DL) leverages edge devices for collaborative model training while avoiding coordination by a central server. Due to privacy concerns, DL has become an attractive alternative to centralized learning schemes since training data never leaves the device.
