Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 10, Issue 2, April 2025.ABSTRACT Introduction It is unknown whether the publication productivity of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery (FPRS) fellowship applicants before fellowship can be a predictor of pursuing academics in the future. The objective of this study was to assess whether the publication productivity of a cohort of FPRS fellowship applicants was ...

Path planning of magnetic microswimmers in high-fidelity simulations of capillaries with deep reinforcement learning [PDF]
arXivBiomedical applications such as targeted drug delivery, microsurgery or sensing rely on reaching precise areas within the body in a minimally invasive way. Artificial bacterial flagella (ABFs) have emerged as potential tools for this task by navigating through the circulatory system.

Towards an adequate description of the dose‐response relationship in BNCT of glioblastoma multiforme
Medical Physics, Volume 52, Issue 4, Page 2606-2617, April 2025.Abstract Background Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is a binary radiotherapy based on the intravenous administration of a borated drug to the patient and the subsequent irradiation with a low‐energy neutron beam. The borated formulation accumulates in the tumor cells, and when neutrons interact with boron, a nuclear capture reaction occurs ...

Dynamic Active Constraints for Surgical Robots using Vector Field Inequalities
, 2019 Robotic assistance allows surgeons to perform dexterous and tremor-free procedures, but robotic aid is still underrepresented in procedures with constrained workspaces, such as deep brain neurosurgery and endonasal surgery.

Characterizing the zebrafish organizer: microsurgical analysis at the early-shield stage [PDF]
, 1996 The appearance of the embryonic shield, a slight thickening at the leading edge of the blastoderm during the formation of the germ ring, is one of the first signs of dorsoventral polarity in the zebrafish embryo.

M2U-Net: Effective and Efficient Retinal Vessel Segmentation for Resource-Constrained Environments [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 In this paper, we present a novel neural network architecture for retinal vessel segmentation that improves over the state of the art on two benchmark datasets, is the first to run in real time on high resolution images, and its small memory and processing requirements make it deployable in mobile and embedded systems.

Closed-Loop Control of a Magnetically Actuated Fiber-Coupled Laser for Computer-Assisted Laser Microsurgery [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Patient outcomes in the medical field are improving through the use and incorporation of robotics technology and laser physics, e.g., the use of optical fibers and lasers in micro-surgery. This paper describes the design and implementation of a new optical fiber laser micro-surgery system, one that is the first to use closed-loop feedback control.

[Reconstructive microsurgery].
Il Giornale di chirurgia, 1997 Since Microsurgery was born, it has been employed in different surgical fields offering more recently good chances even in sterility. Furthermore microsurgical techniques offer a great support to Plastic Surgery. In fact, it is possible to repair wide tissue damages of the skin, muscles or bones using free flaps.
