SurgAnt-ViVQA: Learning to Anticipate Surgical Events through GRU-Driven Temporal Cross-Attention
Shreyas C. Dhake, Jiayuan Huang, Runlong He +7
Anticipating forthcoming surgical events is vital for real-time assistance in endonasal transsphenoidal pituitary surgery, where visibility is limited and workflow changes rapidly.…
SurgViVQA: Temporally-Grounded Video Question Answering for Surgical Scene Understanding
Mauro Orazio Drago, Luca Carlini, Pelinsu Celebi Balyemez +7
Video Question Answering (VideoQA) in the surgical domain aims to enhance intraoperative understanding by enabling AI models to reason over temporally coherent events rather than i…
When to Trust the Answer: Question-Aligned Semantic Nearest Neighbor Entropy for Safer Surgical VQA
Luca Carlini, Dennis Pierantozzi, Mauro Orazio Drago +6
Safety and reliability are critical for deploying visual question answering (VQA) systems in surgery, where incorrect or ambiguous responses can cause patient harm. A key limitatio…
Automated Cervical Os Segmentation for Camera-Guided, Speculum-Free Screening
Aoife McDonald-Bowyer, Anjana Wijekoon, Ryan Laurance Love +7
Cervical cancer is highly preventable, yet persistent barriers to screening limit progress toward elimination goals. Speculum-free devices that integrate imaging and sampling could…
StereoMamba: Real-time and Robust Intraoperative Stereo Disparity Estimation via Long-range Spatial Dependencies
Xu Wang, Jialang Xu, Shuai Zhang +3
Stereo disparity estimation is crucial for obtaining depth information in robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RAMIS). While current deep learning methods have made significa…
EndoLRMGS: Complete Endoscopic Scene Reconstruction combining Large Reconstruction Modelling and Gaussian Splatting
Xu Wang, Shuai Zhang, Baoru Huang +2
Complete reconstruction of surgical scenes is crucial for robot-assisted surgery (RAS). Deep depth estimation is promising but existing works struggle with depth discontinuities, r…
3D Acetabular Surface Reconstruction from 2D Pre-operative X-ray Images using SRVF Elastic Registration and Deformation Graph
Shuai Zhang, Jinliang Wang, Sujith Konandetails +3
Accurate and reliable selection of the appropriate acetabular cup size is crucial for restoring joint biomechanics in total hip arthroplasty (THA). This paper proposes a novel fram…
Surgical AI Copilot: Energy-Based Fourier Gradient Low-Rank Adaptation for Surgical LLM Agent Reasoning and Planning
Jiayuan Huang, Runlong He, Danyal Zaman Khan +6
Image-guided surgery demands adaptive, real-time decision support, yet static AI models struggle with structured task planning and providing interactive guidance. Large language mo…
Endo-FASt3r: Endoscopic Foundation model Adaptation for Structure from motion
Mona Sheikh Zeinoddin, Mobarak I. Hoque, Zafer Tandogdu +4
Accurate depth and camera pose estimation is essential for achieving high-quality 3D visualisations in robotic-assisted surgery. Despite recent advancements in foundation model ada…
PitVQA++: Vector Matrix-Low-Rank Adaptation for Open-Ended Visual Question Answering in Pituitary Surgery
Runlong He, Danyal Z. Khan, Evangelos B. Mazomenos +4
Vision-Language Models (VLMs) in visual question answering (VQA) offer a unique opportunity to enhance intra-operative decision-making, promote intuitive interactions, and signific…
SHADeS: Self-supervised Monocular Depth Estimation Through Non-Lambertian Image Decomposition
Rema Daher, Francisco Vasconcelos, Danail Stoyanov
Purpose: Visual 3D scene reconstruction can support colonoscopy navigation. It can help in recognising which portions of the colon have been visualised and characterising the size…
