  2. CW: :arxiv: Enhancing Surgical Robots with Embodied Intelligence for Autonomous Ultrasound Scanning

    In this work, we propose a novel Ultrasound Embodied Intelligence system that equips ultrasound robots with an LLM and domain knowledge, thereby improving the efficiency of ultrasound robots. Specifically, we first design an ultrasound operation knowledge database and devise a dynamic ultrasound scanning strategy through prompt engineering.

  3. #VA #veterans #health_care When I was first asked to enroll in the #VA system, I told them I didn't need money, I just wanted the nightmares to stop. The #VA immediately connected me with a therapist but continued to bug me about enrolling. After nearly a year, I was enrolled and rated and, out of the blue, I rxd a 5 figure check for the time I had spent wading through paperwork. Think of it as "back pay" for slogging through the #VA system. You earned it, do it ASAP.
