Millions of Americans undergo anesthesia each year. What we do know is that anesthesia interrupts our brain's neural pathways so we don't feel pain. Anesthesiologist Jill Fong explains how it works.

Neural networks have emerged as a pivotal technology in enhancing the precision and reliability of depth of anaesthesia (DoA) monitoring. By integrating advanced signal processing techniques with ...
