DeLTA-BIT: an open-source probabilistic tractography-based deep learning framework for thalamic targeting in functional neurological disorders [PDF]
In the last years there has been a growing interest in the applications of diffusion tractography for target identification in neurofunctional disorders for an increasingly tailored approach. The growing diffusion of well-established neurosurgical procedures as deep brain stimulation (DBS) and trans-cranial Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound (

Assessment of user-interaction strategies for neurosurgical data navigation and annotation in virtual reality [PDF]
While virtual-reality (VR) has shown great promise in radiological tasks, effective user-interaction strategies that can improve efficiency and ergonomics are still under-explored and systematic evaluations of VR interaction techniques in the context of complex anatomical models are rare.

Computer Vision for Increased Operative Efficiency via Identification of Instruments in the Neurosurgical Operating Room: A Proof-of-Concept Study [PDF]
Objectives Computer vision (CV) is a field of artificial intelligence that enables machines to interpret and understand images and videos. CV has the potential to be of assistance in the operating room (OR) to track surgical instruments. We built a CV algorithm for identifying surgical instruments in the neurosurgical operating room as a potential ...
