Prediction of pneumonia following traumatic rib fractures

Integrating clinical data and automated CT analysis into a machine learning model

Background: Blunt thoracic trauma is a common cause of trauma admissions, with rib fractures representing the most frequent thoracic injury. These fractures are associated with a high risk of pulmonary complications, particularly pneumonia, which is a leading cause of morbidity a ...
Introduction - Accurate intrahepatic anatomical localization remains challenging for laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) of patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLMs). Image-guided surgery (IGS) systems utilizing augmented reality (AR) visualizations have been developed to ...
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC), the predominant form of kidney cancer, has increased in incidence and mortality. Partial nephrectomy (PN) is the preferred treatment for resectable renal lesions, with robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) combining minimally invasive surgery and r ...
Purpose: Image-guided surgery can decrease perioperative complication incidences. Augmented Reality (AR) with head-mounted displays (HMDs) provides an accessible method of visualizing 3D preoperative models intraoperatively. This could provide the surgeon with an easy to use intr ...
Objective: The two-fold aim of this phantom study was first to evaluate the accuracy of pulmonary nodule detection for lung cancer screening at progressively lower dose levels of photon-counting computed tomography (PC-CT) and, second, to objectively compare the image qual ...
The thesis is composed of two parts. The first part is the scientific article
that describes the main findings for our objective to align cerebral DSA series.
The second part of the thesis includes more extensive information regarding
the clinical and technical backgr ...
Introduction The current gold standard for preoperative planning of deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEAP) flap breast reconstruction is assessment of perforator vessels on computed tomography angiography (CTA) or magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) images in two-dim ...
