Abstract

BACKGROUND: Traditional surgical education is based on observation and assistance in surgical practice. Recently introduced deep learning (DL) techniques enable the recognition of the surgical view and automatic identification of surgical landmarks. However, there was no previous studies have conducted to develop surgical guide for robotic breast surgery. To develop a DL model for guiding the dissection plane during robotic mastectomy for beginners and trainees.
