Objective: Computer-aided disease diagnosis and prognosis based on medical images is a rapidly emerging field. Many Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architectures have been developed by researchers for disease classification and…

Tactile sensing plays a key role in robotic manipulation, particularly in tasks like surface inspection. Successful execution requires maintaining contact while accurately tracking object contours. In this work, we propose a Vision-Based…

Robotic-assisted medical systems (RAMS) have gained significant attention for their advantages in alleviating surgeons' fatigue and improving patients' outcomes. These systems comprise a range of human-computer interactions, including…

Maternal health remains a pervasive challenge in developing and underdeveloped countries. Inadequate access to basic antenatal Ultrasound (US) examinations, limited resources such as primary health services and infrastructure, and lack of…

Vision-based bronchoscopy (VB) models require the registration of the virtual lung model with the frames from the video bronchoscopy to provide effective guidance during the biopsy. The registration can be achieved by either tracking the…

Achieving 3D spatial awareness is crucial for surgical robotic manipulation, where precise and delicate operations are required. Existing methods either explicitly reconstruct the surgical scene prior to manipulation, or enhance multi-view…

Advanced surgical procedures for congenital heart diseases (CHDs) require precise planning before the surgeries. The conventional approach utilizes 3D-printing and cutting physical heart models, which is a time and resource intensive…

Grasping is a fundamental task in robot-assisted surgery (RAS), and automating it can reduce surgeon workload while enhancing efficiency, safety, and consistency beyond teleoperated systems. Most prior approaches rely on explicit object…

Cervical cancer is one of the leading causes of death in women, and brachytherapy is currently the primary treatment method. However, it is important to precisely define the extent of paracervical tissue invasion to improve cancer diagnosis…

Radiation therapy is an effective and widely accepted form of treatment for many types of cancer that requires extensive computerized planning. Unfortunately, current treatment planning systems have limited or no visual aid that combines…

Non-invasive and cost effective in nature, the echocardiogram allows for a comprehensive assessment of the cardiac musculature and valves. Despite progressive improvements over the decades, the rich temporally resolved data in…

Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) is the latest treatment for tricuspid regurgitation and is in the early stages of clinical adoption. Intelligent robotic approaches are expected to overcome the challenges of surgical…

This paper presents Volumetric Transformer Pose estimator (VTP), the first 3D volumetric transformer framework for multi-view multi-person 3D human pose estimation. VTP aggregates features from 2D keypoints in all camera views and directly…

We present for the first time a general 6DoF trajectory planning method that can be used in real-time image guided radiation therapy procedures for robotic stabilization of dynamically moving tumor targets. As the radiation beam is always…

We describe a visual computing approach to radiation therapy (RT) planning, based on spatial similarity within a patient cohort. In radiotherapy for head and neck cancer treatment, dosage to organs at risk surrounding a tumor is a large…

Computer simulation of "virtual interventions" may inform optimal valve repair for a given patient prior to intervention. However, the paucity of noninvasive methods to determine in vivo mechanical parameters of valves limits the accuracy…

A basic task in the design of a robotic production cell is the relative placement of robot and workpiece. The fundamental requirement is that the robot can reach all process positions; only then one can think of further optimization.…

Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and hypofractionation using pencil-beam scanning (PBS) proton therapy (PBSPT) is an attractive option for thoracic malignancies. Combining the advantages of target coverage conformity and critical…

Radiotherapy (RT) is a critical cancer treatment, with volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) being a commonly used technique that enhances dose conformity by dynamically adjusting multileaf collimator (MLC) positions and monitor units…

Due to the inter- and intra- variation of respiratory motion, it is highly desired to provide real-time volumetric images during the treatment delivery of lung stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for accurate and active motion…
