TRACE-PCa: Predicting Prostate Cancer Progression from Longitudinal MRI During Active Surveillance

Active surveillance (AS) is the preferred strategy for favorable-risk prostate cancer, yet current protocols rely on scheduled repeat biopsies, most of which reveal no progression and are unnecessary. Existing risk-stratification tools operate on single time-point imaging or depend on explicit lesion segmentation, limiting their ability to capture longitudinal change and excluding patients without an MRI-visible lesion.

PhenSPINE: A Standardized Benchmark for Spine Pathology Diagnosis

The accurate diagnosis of spinal pathologies depends heavily on radiological interpretation, yet automated systems are hindered by the lack of diverse, high-quality benchmarks. In this study, we present PhenSPINE, a Magnetic Resonance Imaging dataset comprising 16,813 images from 250 patients, curated to facilitate advanced deep learning research.

Real-Time Multimodal Activity-Aware Error Detection in Robot-Assisted Surgery

Robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery improves surgical precision but introduces complexity, making technical error detection essential for ensuring patient safety. Current executional error detection methods using video data often overlook fine-grained contextual descriptions of activities and error types within the hierarchical structure of surgical procedures.
