Is robotic brain surgery closer than we think? For the first time, #Symani was used in a preclinical study to operate on brain tissue. Learn more about the possibility of expanding robotics into complex neurosurgical care: https://ow.ly/z5wO50SP5zT The Symani Surgical System is currently indicated for use in open free-flap surgery of the breast and extremities and open lymphatic surgery of the extremities. Refer to global indication information at https://ow.ly/KkjQ50SP5zS.

Big news about neurosurgery with Symani! See link:

There is perhaps no greater potential application for microvascular surgery that exceeds what it could mean for delicate neurosurgical procedures that are performed on the brain or spine. The MMI Symani microsurgical tools may offer our best opportunity to treat things previously thought untreatable due to the small size of the structures involved. Here’s to new and exciting future applications for these microsurgical and robotic tools!

Thoughts on designing the next generation tracers for image-guided surgery 🧐 The development of imaging agents plays a crucial role in using intraoperative molecular imaging for effective surgical guidance. To achieve optimal in vivo utility, a balanced molecular design of the tracer is required, ensuring a harmonious effect of the imaging label with the affinity and specificity of the targeting moiety. We recently wrote a review to outline design strategies and the effects on the agent’s pharmacological profile.

#DYK Gamma Knife radiosurgery, or stereotactic radiosurgery using non-invasive HSA cobalt-60 can treat tumours or lesions in the brain that are as small as one-tenth of a millimetre? That is about equivalent to the thickness of a piece of paper. The remarkable precision of gamma irradiation beams help physicians provide direct treatment to lesions or tumours in the brain externally, without the need for open brain surgery – a revolutionary innovation made possible by Canadian-harvested HSA cobalt-60.

Remember my previous post about using machine learning to predict brain age with MRI radiomics? There's another news coming out of ISMRM 2024! A second presentation of our group titled "Predicting Total Knee Replacement Surgery Using Radiomic Features Extracted from MRI Scans" was also featured on AuntMinnie.com. https://lnkd.in/gZaBK5C4 In this research we explored the potential of radiomics to identify knee osteoarthritis patients who might need total knee replacement surgery. Our radiomic model achieved an accuracy of up to 87.2%, showcasing the expanding applications of radiomics in precision medicine. Thanks to all my coauthors Ozkan Cigdem Cem M.
