Multiscale Spatial Fusion Feature‐Driven Characterization of Gastric Cancer Invasive Margins: A Multicenter Cohort Study for Preoperative Accurate Differentiation Between T4a and T4b Subtypes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a multi‐dimensional vision Transformer‐based model, GAVR, to accurately distinguish gastric cancer T4a/b stages preoperatively. Validated across multi‐center cohorts, it achieves excellent performance and significantly improves radiologists’ diagnostic accuracy, offering a promising tool for clinical decision‐making.

Successful conversion of percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage to endoscopic ultrasound-guided hepaticogastrostomy combined with antegrade stenting for a malignant distal biliary obstruction due to invasive intraductal papillary mucinous carcinoma: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports
Background Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is the gold-standard treatment for malignant distal biliary obstruction. However, when endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography cannot be successful, endoscopic ultrasound-guided rendezvous ...

EndoTac: An Endoscopic Camera‐Based Tactile Sensor with High Sensitivity for Minimally Invasive Surgery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
EndoTac presents a trocar‐compatible endoscopic vision‐based tactile sensor that uses a convex mirror to enlarge side‐facing tactile coverage during minimally invasive vessel palpation. Distorted tactile images are unwarped and processed by a learning model to estimate vascular deformation, enabling sensitive, spatially distributed tactile perception ...

Choledocholithiasis diagnostics – endoscopic ultrasound or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography? [PDF]

, 2014
It is estimated that 3.4% of patients qualified for cholecystectomy due to cholelithiasis have a coexisting choledocholithiasis. For decades, endoscopic ascending retrograde cholangiopancreatography has been the golden diagnostic standard in cases of ...

Annular Esophageal Leiomyoma Mimicking a Foregut Cyst on Endoscopic Ultrasound [PDF]

, 2006
On ultrasound, leiomyoma of the esophagus is typically described as being a hypoechoic tumor located in the submucosa with a smooth contour. We report a case of esophageal leiomyoma that presented unusually as an anechoic (cyst-like) lesion on endoscopic

Can Machine Learning Reduce Unnecessary Surgeries? A Retrospective Analysis Using Threshold Optimization to Prevent Negative Appendectomies in Adults

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Threshold‐optimized machine learning models using routine clinical and laboratory data in 623 adults undergoing appendectomy. Logistic regression (AUC = 0.765) and random forest (AUC = 0.785) were the best‐performing models for appendicitis detection and complicated appendicitis prediction, respectively.

Pancreatic Atrophy: A Narrative Review and Surgical Interpretation

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Pancreatic parenchymal atrophy pattern and intraoperative margin assessment guide surgical strategy. ABSTRACT Despite recent advances in multimodal management, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma remains a fatal malignancy. Early detection of indirect findings of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is essential to improve treatment outcomes, drawing ...

Contrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasound

Endoscopic Ultrasound, 2012
The European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (EFSUMB) introduced guidelines on the use of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in 2004. This EFSUMB-document focused mainly on liver applications. However, new applications extending beyond the liver were developed thereafter.
