Multimodal Assessment of Pancreatic Cancer Resectability Using Deep Learning
Vincent Ochs, Christoph Kuemmerli, Florentin Bieder +12
Accurate determination of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) resectability relies on evaluating how the tumor interacts with major peripancreatic vessels on CT imaging, yet ex…
Challenges in Multi-centric Generalization: Phase and Step Recognition in Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery
Joel L. Lavanchy, Sanat Ramesh, Diego Dall'Alba +7
Most studies on surgical activity recognition utilizing Artificial intelligence (AI) have focused mainly on recognizing one type of activity from small and mono-centric surgical vi…
Semantic segmentation of surgical hyperspectral images under geometric domain shifts
Jan Sellner, Silvia Seidlitz, Alexander Studier-Fischer +5
Robust semantic segmentation of intraoperative image data could pave the way for automatic surgical scene understanding and autonomous robotic surgery. Geometric domain shifts, how…
LapSeg3D: Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation of Point Clouds Representing Laparoscopic Scenes
Benjamin Alt, Christian Kunz, Darko Katic +5
The semantic segmentation of surgical scenes is a prerequisite for task automation in robot assisted interventions. We propose LapSeg3D, a novel DNN-based approach for the voxel-wi…
Robust deep learning-based semantic organ segmentation in hyperspectral images
Silvia Seidlitz, Jan Sellner, Jan Odenthal +11
Semantic image segmentation is an important prerequisite for context-awareness and autonomous robotics in surgery. The state of the art has focused on conventional RGB video data a…
Cooperative Assistance in Robotic Surgery through Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning
Paul Maria Scheikl, Balázs Gyenes, Tornike Davitashvili +6
Cognitive cooperative assistance in robot-assisted surgery holds the potential to increase quality of care in minimally invasive interventions. Automation of surgical tasks promise…
How can we learn (more) from challenges? A statistical approach to driving future algorithm development
Tobias Roß, Pierangela Bruno, Annika Reinke +12
Challenges have become the state-of-the-art approach to benchmark image analysis algorithms in a comparative manner. While the validation on identical data sets was a great step fo…
Surgical Data Science -- from Concepts toward Clinical Translation
Lena Maier-Hein, Matthias Eisenmann, Duygu Sarikaya +47
Recent developments in data science in general and machine learning in particular have transformed the way experts envision the future of surgery. Surgical Data Science (SDS) is a…
Robust Medical Instrument Segmentation Challenge 2019
Tobias Ross, Annika Reinke, Peter M. Full +47
Intraoperative tracking of laparoscopic instruments is often a prerequisite for computer and robotic-assisted interventions. While numerous methods for detecting, segmenting and tr…
Prediction of laparoscopic procedure duration using unlabeled, multimodal sensor data
Sebastian Bodenstedt, Martin Wagner, Lars Mündermann +6
Purpose The course of surgical procedures is often unpredictable, making it difficult to estimate the duration of procedures beforehand. A context-aware method that analyses the wo…
