: Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) for the treatment of prostate cancer (PCa) has been standardized over the last 20 years. At our institution, only n = 3 rob arms are used for RARP. In addition, n = 2, 12 mm lap trocars are placed for the bedside assistant symmetrically at the midclavicular lines, which allows for direct pelvic triangulation and greater involvement of the assisting surgeon.

Importance: To efficiently perform bimanual daily tasks, bimanual coordination is needed. Bimanual coordination is the interaction between an individual's hands, which may be impaired post-stroke, however clinical and functional assessments are lacking and research is limited.
Objectives: To develop a valid and reliable observation tool to assess bimanual coordination of individuals post-stroke.

Background: Diffuse leptomeningeal glioneuronal tumor (DLGNT) is a rare central nervous system tumor, especially in adult females. Typically, it presents with leptomeningeal enhancements in the basal cisterns and spinal cord. However, varied radiological and pathological features can complicate the diagnosis, as the present case illustrates.

Over the last three decades, colloidal crystallization has provided an easy-to-craft platform for mesoscale engineering of photonic and phononic crystals. Nevertheless, the crystal lattices achieved thus far with commodity colloids are largely limited to symmetric and densely packed structures, restricting their functionalities. To obtain non-close-packed crystals and the resulting complexity of the available structures, directional binding between "patchy" colloids has been pursued.

Background: Poor needle placement in prostate high-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDR-BT) results in sub-optimal dosimetry and mentally predicting these effects during HDR-BT is difficult, creating a barrier to widespread availability of high-quality prostate HDR-BT.
Purpose: To provide earlier feedback on needle implantation quality, we trained machine learning models to predict 2D dosimetry for prostate HDR-BT on axial TRUS images.
Methods And Materials: Clinical treatment plans from 248 prostate HDR-BT patients were retrospectively collected and randomly split 80/20 for training/testing.
