The need to integrate aspects of functional, psychosocial and cosmetic impairment into medical care is increasingly accepted among the physicians and the patients. For these reasons, single-port robotic surgery emerges as the most advanced approach u...
This paper investigates the automatic monitoring of tool usage during a surgery, with potential applications in report generation, surgical training and real-time decision support. Two surgeries are considered: cataract surgery, the most common surgi...
Accurate surgery duration estimation is necessary for optimal OR planning, which plays an important role in patient comfort and safety as well as resource optimization. It is, however, challenging to preoperatively predict surgery duration since it v...
BACKGROUND: The Single Port Orifice Robotic Technology (SPORT) Surgical System by Titan Medical Inc. is designed to overcome the inherent challenges of minimally invasive single-access procedures. The aim of this preclinical study was to evaluate the...
Surgical tool presence detection and surgical phase recognition are two fundamental yet challenging tasks in surgical video analysis as well as very essential components in various applications in modern operating rooms. While these two analysis task...
