Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Conference Paper Description
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is considered a first-choice minimally invasive procedure for treating kidney stones larger than 2 cm. It yields higher stone-free rates than other minimally invasive techniques and is employed when extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy or uteroscopy are, for instance, infeasible. Using this technique, surgeons create a tract through which a scope is inserted for gaining access to the stones. Traditional PCNL tools, however, present limited maneuverability, may require multiple punctures and often lead to excessive torquing of the instruments which can damage the kidney parenchyma and thus increase the risk of hemorrhage. We approach this problem by proposing a nested optimization-driven scheme for determining a single tract surgical plan along which a patient-specific concentric-tube robot (CTR) is deployed so as to enhance manipulability along the most dominant directions of the stone presentations. The approach is illustrated with seven sets of clinical data from patients who underwent PCNL. The simulated results may set the stage for achieving higher stone-free rates through single tract PCNL interventions while decreasing blood loss.
