FBG-Based Triaxial Force Sensor Integrated with an Eccentrically Configured Imaging Probe for Endoluminal Optical Biopsy [PDF]
Accurate force sensing is important for endoluminal intervention in terms of both safety and lesion targeting. This paper develops an FBG-based force sensor for robotic bronchoscopy by configuring three FBG sensors at the lateral side of a conical substrate.

"Detachment of the carinal hook following endobronchial intubation with a double lumen tube"
Background Carinal hooks increases difficulty at endotracheal intubation. Amputation of the carinal hook during passage and malpositioning of the tube to the hook are some of the potential problems related with left-sided Carlens double lumen tube (DLT).

Abstract The incidence of juvenile‐onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JORRP) varies worldwide, and the lack of well‐adopted guidelines for use in China suggests that patients with JORRP do not receive optimal care. In America, where data are available, pediatric patients undergo an average of 4 surgeries annually and a total of >40 surgeries ...

High‐risk cardiac patients may benefit from timely temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) implantation to provide perioperative hemodynamic stabilization and circulatory support, thus enabling them to undergo life‐saving thoracic surgery. CPB: cardiopulmonary bypass; IABP: intra‐aortic balloon pump; tMCS: temporary mechanical circulatory ...

NaviAirway: a Bronchiole-sensitive Deep Learning-based Airway Segmentation Pipeline [PDF]
Airway segmentation is essential for chest CT image analysis. Different from natural image segmentation, which pursues high pixel-wise accuracy, airway segmentation focuses on topology. The task is challenging not only because of its complex tree-like structure but also the severe pixel imbalance among airway branches of different generations.
