Clear visualization during transnasal endoscopic surgery (TNES) is crucial for safe, efficient surgery. The endoscopic surgical field clarity index (ESFCI) is an artificial intelligence-enabled measure of surgical field quality. The ESFCI allows researchers to evaluate interventions to improve visualization during TNES.

Cardiovascular disorders remain a leading cause of death worldwide, and the use of contemporary stents is paving the way for a profound shift in the field of cardiology. In the surgical process postimplantation, the graft or stent and host-immune interaction play a significant role in the healing process, thus it is a major challenge in healthcare. To address these challenges, recent advancements have introduced bioactive coatings with specialized modifications in stents to enhance their interaction with surrounding environment.

Research into the mechanisms underlying neuromodulation by tES using in-vivo animal models is key to overcoming experimental limitations in humans and essential to building a detailed understanding of the in-vivo consequences of tES. Insights from such animal models are needed to develop targeted and effective therapeutic applications of non-invasive brain stimulation in humans. The sheer difference in scale and geometry between animal models and the human brain contributes to the complexity of designing and interpreting animal studies.

While clinical trials have demonstrated its efficacy with regards to audiological performance, safety and compliance, data on real-world paediatric cohorts is scarce.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study analysed data from paediatric patients fitted with ADHEAR at a tertiary centre between January 2017 and September 2024.

Computed Tomography (CT) to Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) image registration is crucial for image-guided radiotherapy and surgical procedures. However, achieving accurate CT-CBCT registration remains challenging due to various factors such as inconsistent intensities, low contrast resolution and imaging artifacts. In this study, we propose a Context-Aware Semantics-driven Hierarchical Network (referred to as CASHNet), which hierarchically integrates context-aware semantics-encoded features into a coarse-to-fine registration scheme, to explicitly enhance semantic structural perception during progressive alignment.

Background: The aim of this review is to present the role of intraoperative flow cytometry (IFC) in the intracranial tumor surgery. This scoping review aims to summarize current evidence on the intraoperative use of IFC in patients with intracranial tumors.
Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted in the Medline, Cochrane and Scopus databases up to January 21, 2025.
