Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence in robotic hepatobiliary surgery: A systematic review
Abstract Background Indocyanine green fluorescence (ICG‐F) stains hepatic tumours and delineates vascular and biliary structures in real‐time. We detail the efficacy of ICG‐F in robotic hepatobiliary surgery. Methods PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Central were searched for original articles and meta‐analyses detailing the outcomes of ICG ...

One-shot skill assessment in high-stakes domains with limited data via meta learning [PDF]
Deep Learning (DL) has achieved robust competency assessment in various high-stakes fields. However, the applicability of DL models is often hampered by their substantial data requirements and confinement to specific training domains. This prevents them from transitioning to new tasks where data is scarce.

Sarcopenia ‘made simple’ and outcomes from emergency laparotomy
CT‐assessed ratio of L3 vertebral body cross‐sectional area to total psoas muscle cross‐sectional area (L3:PM) is a simple yet significant predictor of 30‐, 90‐ and 365‐day mortality in emergency laparotomy patients. This study is the first to describe the association in an Australian population.
