Needle Segmentation Using GAN: Restoring Thin Instrument Visibility in Robotic Ultrasound [PDF]
Ultrasound-guided percutaneous needle insertion is a standard procedure employed in both biopsy and ablation in clinical practices. However, due to the complex interaction between tissue and instrument, the needle may deviate from the in-plane view, resulting in a lack of close monitoring of the percutaneous needle.

Clinical Validation of two Surface Imaging Systems for Patient Positioning in Percutaneous Radiotherapy [PDF]
Precise patient positioning and thus precise positioning of the planning target volume (PTV) is a prerequisite for effective treatment in percutaneous radiation therapy. Conventional imaging modalities used to ensure exact positioning for treatment typically involve additional radiation exposure of the patient. A different approach to patient alignment
