Micro‐Coil Neuromodulation at Single‐Cell and Circuit Levels for Inhibiting Natural Neuroactivity, Neutralizing Electric Neural Excitation, and Suppressing Seizures

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Micromagnetic stimulation (µMS) offers a precise method for neural inhibition, complementing existing neuromodulation techniques. Using an implantable micro‐coil device, µMS selectively suppresses cortical activity with high spatial resolution. It effectively counteracts micro‐electrode stimulation and reduces seizure amplitude, highlighting its ...

Simultaneous Recognition and Pose Estimation of Instruments in Minimally Invasive Surgery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Detection of surgical instruments plays a key role in ensuring patient safety in minimally invasive surgery. In this paper, we present a novel method for 2D vision-based recognition and pose estimation of surgical instruments that generalizes to different surgical applications.

Ultra‐Hypofractionated Radiotherapy for Early‐Stage Glottic Cancer: Real‐World Data From a Single Center

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In recent years, smaller‐volume radiotherapy has attracted attention. It appears to be a safe and effective treatment for glottic laryngeal cancer. This study evaluated the results of ultra‐hypofractionated radiotherapy for early glottic laryngeal cancer in unfit patients.

Modelling heat transfer in laser-soft matter interaction via chaotic Ikeda map [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
We develop a model for simulating the heat transfer phenomena within a biological soft material using the Ikeda chaotic map. Our approach is implemented by sampling the optical intensity via the Ikeda map to investigate the influence on the heat distribution over the tissue.
