Secondly, these image and data files are converted to the digital imaging and communications in medicine(DICOM) files supported by PACS and transferred into the database in PACS. The process of surgery navigation is recorded and archived. Finally, the original data of process archive is acquired from PACS, and this data is used to play back and restore the process of surgery navigation.展开更多

The main goal of the surgery is to release the ankylosis, establish functioning mandible, and prevent re-fusion.However, surgical procedures for this disease are rarely reported.CASE SUMMARY Here, we report a 7-mo-old girl with bilateral maxillomandibular syngnathia. The patient presented with difficulty in feeding, breathing, sounding, and swallowing and had developmental dysplasia. For treatment, we performed bone isolation by computer-assisted navigation and used silicone to fix the wound surface to prevent refusion of bone. To our knowledge, this is the only syngnathia case in the literature treated using computer-assisted navigation. With the guidance of precise navigation, we were able to minimize operation time by at least one hour,the patient's blood vessels, nerves, and tooth germs were well protected, and excessive bleeding was avoided. After six weeks, the patient showed improvement in mouth opening and no major issues of feeding.CONCLUSION Application of computer-assisted navigation can significantly improve accuracy,effectiveness, and surgical safety in correcting congenital maxillomandibular syngnathia.展开更多

Navigation technology using BCI has developed-from exploring the prototype paradigm in the virtual environment (VE) to accurately completing the locomotion intention of the operator in the form of a powered wheelchair or mobile robot in a real environment. This paper summarizes BCI navigation applications that have been used in both real and VEs in the past 20 years. Horizontal comparisons were conducted between various paradigms applied to BCI and their unique signal-processing methods. Owing to the shift in the control mode from synchronous to asynchronous, the development trend of navigation applications in the VE was also reviewed. The contrast between high level commands and low-level commands is introduced as the main line to review the two major applications of BCI navigation in real environments: mobile robots and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Finally, applications of BCI navigation to scenarios outside the laboratory;research challenges, including human factors in navigation application interaction design;and the feasibility of hybrid BCI for BCI navigation are discussed in detail.展开更多

Continuous improvements in the accuracy of surface mass loading products, performance of Earth models, and precise data-processing technologies have significantly advanced research on the effects of environmental loading on nonlinear variations in GNSS coordinate time series. However, owing to theoretical limitations, the lack of high spatiotemporal resolution surface mass observations, and the coupling of GNSS technology-related systematic errors, environmental loading and nonlinear GNSS reference station displacements remain inconsistent. The applicability and capability of these loading products across different regions also require further evaluation. This paper outlines methods for modeling environmental loading, surface mass loading products, and service organizations. In addition, it summarizes recent advances in applying environmental loading to address nonlinear variations in global and regional GNSS coordinate time series. Moreover, the scientific questions of existing studies are summarized, and insights into future research directions are provided. The complex nonlinear motion of reference stations is a major factor limiting the accuracy of the current terrestrial reference frame. Further refining the environmental load modeling method, establishing a surface mass distribution model with high spatiotemporal resolution and reliability, exploring other environmental load factors such as ice sheet and artificial mass-change effects, and developing an optimal data-processing model and strategy for reprocessing global reference station data consistently could contribute to the development of a millimeter-level nonlinear motion model for GNSS reference stations with actual physical significance and provide theoretical support for establishing a terrestrial reference frame with 1 mm accuracy by 2050.展开更多

文摘This paper presents the design and ground verification for vision-based relative navigation systems of microsatellites,which offers a comprehensive hardware design solution and a robust experimental verification methodology for practical implementation of vision-based navigation technology on the microsatellite platform.Firstly,a low power consumption,light weight,and high performance vision-based relative navigation optical sensor is designed.Subsequently,a set of ground verification system is designed for the hardware-in-the-loop testing of the vision-based relative navigation systems.Finally,the designed vision-based relative navigation optical sensor and the proposed angles-only navigation algorithms are tested on the ground verification system.The results verify that the optical simulator after geometrical calibration can meet the requirements of the hardware-in-the-loop testing of vision-based relative navigation systems.Based on experimental results,the relative position accuracy of the angles-only navigation filter at terminal time is increased by 25.5%,and the relative speed accuracy is increased by 31.3% compared with those of optical simulator before geometrical calibration.

文摘Objective:To observe the guiding role of image navigation technology in the treatment of patients with tuberculosis.Methods:A total of 188 patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis(MDR-TB)and rifampin-resistant tuberculosis(RR-TB)who were hospitalized in the hospital from September 2023 to September 2024 were included.After random equal division,94 patients were included in the control group and received systemic anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy;94 patients were included in the treatment group.Based on systemic anti-tuberculosis treatment,digital subtraction angiography(DSA)technology was used to inject targeted drugs into the bronchial lumen through bronchoscopy to complete anti-tuberculosis treatment.The changes in sputum bacteria and imaging were observed in the two groups.Results:The sputum negative conversion rate in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group(86.2%;70.2%)(u=2.74,P<0.01).The absorption rate of CT imaging lesions(significant absorption)was significantly higher than that of the control group(83.0%;50%)(u=2.45,P<0.05).The closure rate of chest CT cavities was significantly higher than that of the control group(74.2%;39.1%)(u=2.20,P<0.05).During the treatment process,the improvement of clinical symptoms was significantly higher than that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant.There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(x^(2)=0.434,P>0.05).Conclusion:Based on DSA,targeted drug infusion within the bronchoscope can significantly improve the efficacy of the disease,with mild adverse reactions that patients can tolerate.It is worthy of promotion and application.

文摘In multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAV)systems,achieving efficient navigation is essential for executing complex tasks and enhancing autonomy.Traditional navigation methods depend on predefined control strategies and trajectory planning and often perform poorly in complex environments.To improve the UAV-environment interaction efficiency,this study proposes a multi-UAV integrated navigation algorithm based on Deep Reinforcement Learning(DRL).This algorithm integrates the Inertial Navigation System(INS),Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS),and Visual Navigation System(VNS)for comprehensive information fusion.Specifically,an improved multi-UAV integrated navigation algorithm called Information Fusion with MultiAgent Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient(IF-MADDPG)was developed.This algorithm enables UAVs to learn collaboratively and optimize their flight trajectories in real time.Through simulations and experiments,test scenarios in GNSS-denied environments were constructed to evaluate the effectiveness of the algorithm.The experimental results demonstrate that the IF-MADDPG algorithm significantly enhances the collaborative navigation capabilities of multiple UAVs in formation maintenance and GNSS-denied environments.Additionally,it has advantages in terms of mission completion time.This study provides a novel approach for efficient collaboration in multi-UAV systems,which significantly improves the robustness and adaptability of navigation systems.
