In this video, we delve into the fascinating world of awake craniotomies—a groundbreaking procedure where patients remain awake and responsive during brain surgery. Discover how this technique benefits multilingual patients by allowing surgeons to map out language functions in real-time, ensuring that essential brain areas, especially those controlling language, are preserved. Join us as we explore the history, process, and incredible stories of individuals who have undergone this life-changing surgery. #Languages, #LanguageMapping, #Multilingual, #LanguageBrainConnection, #BrainAndLanguage, #SpeechAndLanguage, #BilingualBrain, #LanguageFunction, #LanguageResearch

🌟 Revolutionary Surgery in Łódź! January 2024, Guest Professor Dr. Dr. Konrad Karcz independently performed two obesity surgeries, aided by the state-of-the-art VEQTRON 4K ICG Imaging System. 🏥 With the RAS support arm and LEO Eye, he managed to operate precisely and efficiently without human assistance. 🔬 These technologies provided unmatched image stability and clarity, while Prof. Karcz maintained full control over lighting and image sharpness. 💡 A milestone in surgical precision and autonomy, shaping the future of medicine. #SurgicalInnovation #FutureOfMedicine 🚀🩺

I successfully replicated the study on motion prediction for beating heart surgery using GRUs, demonstrating that the T-GRU model is more stable than originally reported and that spatio-temporal features might be relevant when using in vivo datasets.

Precision Neuroscience "responds" to Neuralink with this high channel count cortical implant that can be inserted with a minimally invasive surgery. 🧠 ⚡ Great work from Mark Hettick, Elton Ho, and colleagues 👏 now out on the arXiv https://lnkd.in/eMZSW5m7 As I understand it, the device has one layer, and its name is Layer 7. Is that correct? Precision Neuroscience?

Join Cristos Ifantides MD, MBA, as he explores the emerging field of middle segment surgery (MSS) with guests Tanya Trinh, MBBS, FRANZCO, and SADEER B. HANNUSH, M.D., This episode covers the origins, techniques, and clinical implications of MSS and highlights the critical role of a dual-skilled surgeon for optimal patient outcomes: https://bit.ly/3y5nfmq
