Most-cited papers in Journal of Medical Robotics Research

Towards a Computed-Aided Diagnosis System in Colonoscopy: Automatic Polyp Segmentation Using Convolution Neural Networks

Patrick Brandao, Odysseas Zisimopoulos, Evangelos Mazomenos et al. · 22 Feb 2018

Early diagnosis is essential for the successful treatment of bowel cancers including colorectal cancer (CRC), and capsule endoscopic imaging with robotic actuation can be a valuable diagnostic tool when combined with automated image analysis. We present a deep learning rooted detection and segmentation framework for recognizing lesions in colonoscopy and capsule endoscopy images. We restructure…

Estimation-Based Control of a Magnetic Endoscope without Device Localization

Janis Edelmann, Andrew J. Petruska, Bradley J. Nelson · 23 Nov 2017

Magnetically controlled catheters and endoscopes can improve minimally invasive procedures as a result of their increased maneuverability when combined with modern magnetic steering systems. However, such systems have two distinct shortcomings: they require continuous information about the location of the instrument inside the human body and they rely on models that accurately capture the device…

Toward Transoral Peripheral Lung Access: Combining Continuum Robots and Steerable Needles

Philip J. Swaney, Arthur W. Mahoney, Bryan I. Hartley et al. · 10 Oct 2016

Lung cancer is the most deadly form of cancer in part because of the challenges associated with accessing nodules for diagnosis and therapy. Transoral access is preferred to percutaneous access since it has a lower risk of lung collapse, yet many sites are currently unreachable transorally due to limitations with current bronchoscopic instruments. Toward this…

The MIRIAM Robot: A Novel Robotic System for MR-Guided Needle Insertion in the Prostate

Pedro Moreira, Gert van de Steeg, T. Krabben et al. · 10 Oct 2016

Early prostate cancer detection and treatment are of major importance to reduce mortality rate. magnetic resonance (MR) imaging provides images of the prostate where an early stage lesion can be visualized. The use of robotic systems for MR-guided interventions in the prostate allows us to improve the clinical outcomes of procedures such as biopsy and…

Autonomous Control of Continuum Robot Manipulators for Complex Cardiac Ablation Tasks

Michael C. Yip, Jake Sganga, David B. Camarillo · 10 Oct 2016

Continuum manipulators enable minimally-invasive surgery on the beating heart, but the challenges involved in manually controlling the manipulator’s tip position and contact force with the tissue result in failed procedures and complications. The objective of this work is to achieve autonomous robotic control of a continuum manipulator’s position and force in a beating heart model.…

Journal of Medical Robotics Research template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Journal of Medical Robotics Research format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Journal of Medical Robotics Research template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official World Scientific format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Journal of Medical Robotics Research use?
Journal of Medical Robotics Research uses Superscript numbered (World Scientific) references, shown as superscript numerals in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith, A., Jones, B. & Lee, C. A representative article title. Journal of Medical Robotics Research 12, 45–58 (2023).
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Journal of Medical Robotics Research?
No. DocuGuru generates the ws-ijmpa LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a World Scientific-ready Journal of Medical Robotics Research document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Journal of Medical Robotics Research template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Journal of Medical Robotics Research format with correct headings, figures, tables, and superscript citations.
Who publishes Journal of Medical Robotics Research?
Journal of Medical Robotics Research is a physics journal published by World Scientific. DocuGuru's Journal of Medical Robotics Research template matches World Scientific's official submission format.
