Real-time algorithms for automatically recognizing surgical phases are needed to develop systems that can provide assistance to surgeons, enable better management of operating room (OR) resources and consequently improve safety within the…

Endoscopic surgery is the gold standard for robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery, offering significant advantages in early disease detection and precise interventions. However, the complexity of surgical scenes, characterized by high…

Surgical training in medical school residency programs has followed the apprenticeship model. The learning and assessment process is inherently subjective and time-consuming. Thus, there is a need for objective methods to assess surgical…

With the advent of robot-assisted surgery, the role of data-driven approaches to integrate statistics and machine learning is growing rapidly with prominent interests in objective surgical skill assessment. However, most existing work…

In otolaryngologic surgery, endoscopy is increasingly used to provide a better view of hard-to-reach areas and to promote minimally invasive surgery. However, the need to manipulate the endoscope limits the surgeon's ability to operate with…

Simulated training platforms offer a suitable avenue for surgical students and professionals to build and improve upon their skills, without the hassle of traditional training methods. To enhance the degree of realistic interaction…

The current apprenticeship model for surgical training requires a high level of supervision, which does not scale well to meet the growing need for more surgeons. Many endoscopic procedures are directly taught in the operating room (OR)…

Purpose: A profound education of novice surgeons is crucial to ensure that surgical interventions are effective and safe. One important aspect is the teaching of technical skills for minimally invasive or robot-assisted procedures. This…

Purpose: Manual feedback from senior surgeons observing less experienced trainees is a laborious task that is very expensive, time-consuming and prone to subjectivity. With the number of surgical procedures increasing annually, there is an…

New endoscopists require a large volume of expert-proctored colonoscopies to attain minimal competency. Developing multi-fingered, synchronized control of a colonoscope requires significant time and exposure to the device. Current training…

Surgical tool segmentation in endoscopic images is an important problem: it is a crucial step towards full instrument pose estimation and it is used for integration of pre- and intra-operative images into the endoscopic view. While many…

Endoscopic depth estimation is a critical technology for improving the safety and precision of minimally invasive surgery. It has attracted considerable attention from researchers in medical imaging, computer vision, and robotics. Over the…

Purpose: Segmentation of surgical instruments in endoscopic videos is essential for automated surgical scene understanding and process modeling. However, relying on fully supervised deep learning for this task is challenging because manual…

Laparoscopic surgery is a complex surgical technique that requires extensive training. Recent advances in deep learning have shown promise in supporting this training by enabling automatic video-based assessment of surgical skills. However,…

Purpose: The objective of this investigation is to provide a comprehensive analysis of state-of-the-art methods for video-based assessment of surgical skill in the operating room. Methods: Using a data set of 99 videos of capsulorhexis, a…

Endoscopic Sinus and Skull Base Surgeries (ESSBSs) is a challenging and potentially dangerous surgical procedure, and objective skill assessment is the key components to improve the effectiveness of surgical training, to re-validate…

Surgical tool segmentation in endoscopic images is the first step towards pose estimation and (sub-)task automation in challenging minimally invasive surgical operations. While many approaches in the literature have shown great results…

Localizing oneself during endoscopic procedures can be problematic due to the lack of distinguishable textures and landmarks, as well as difficulties due to the endoscopic device such as a limited field of view and challenging lighting…

While post-training model compression can greatly reduce the inference cost of a deep neural network, uncompressed training still consumes a huge amount of hardware resources, run-time and energy. It is highly desirable to directly train a…

Automated endoscopy video analysis is a challenging task in medical computer vision, with the primary objective of assisting surgeons during procedures. The difficulty arises from the complexity of surgical scenes and the lack of a…
