Objective Surgical Skills Assessment and Tool Localization: Results from the MICCAI 2021 SimSurgSkill Challenge
Aneeq Zia, Kiran Bhattacharyya, Xi Liu +12
Timely and effective feedback within surgical training plays a critical role in developing the skills required to perform safe and efficient surgery. Feedback from expert surgeons,…
Generalized Product-of-Experts for Learning Multimodal Representations in Noisy Environments
Abhinav Joshi, Naman Gupta, Jinang Shah +3
A real-world application or setting involves interaction between different modalities (e.g., video, speech, text). In order to process the multimodal information automatically and…
Retrieval of surgical phase transitions using reinforcement learning
Yitong Zhang, Sophia Bano, Ann-Sophie Page +3
In minimally invasive surgery, surgical workflow segmentation from video analysis is a well studied topic. The conventional approach defines it as a multi-class classification prob…
Learning-Based Keypoint Registration for Fetoscopic Mosaicking
Alessandro Casella, Sophia Bano, Francisco Vasconcelos +7
In Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS), abnormal vascular anastomoses in the monochorionic placenta can produce uneven blood flow between the two fetuses. In the current pract…
Fluorescence angiography classification in colorectal surgery -- A preliminary report
Antonio S Soares, Sophia Bano, Neil T Clancy +3
Background: Fluorescence angiography has shown very promising results in reducing anastomotic leaks by allowing the surgeon to select optimally perfused tissue. However, subjective…
Placental Vessel Segmentation and Registration in Fetoscopy: Literature Review and MICCAI FetReg2021 Challenge Findings
Sophia Bano, Alessandro Casella, Francisco Vasconcelos +28
Fetoscopy laser photocoagulation is a widely adopted procedure for treating Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS). The procedure involves photocoagulation pathological anastomos…
Task-Aware Active Learning for Endoscopic Image Analysis
Shrawan Kumar Thapa, Pranav Poudel, Binod Bhattarai +1
Semantic segmentation of polyps and depth estimation are two important research problems in endoscopic image analysis. One of the main obstacles to conduct research on these resear…
Histogram of Oriented Gradients Meet Deep Learning: A Novel Multi-task Deep Network for Medical Image Semantic Segmentation
Binod Bhattarai, Ronast Subedi, Rebati Raman Gaire +2
We present our novel deep multi-task learning method for medical image segmentation. Existing multi-task methods demand ground truth annotations for both the primary and auxiliary…
Bimodal Camera Pose Prediction for Endoscopy
Anita Rau, Binod Bhattarai, Lourdes Agapito +1
Deducing the 3D structure of endoscopic scenes from images is exceedingly challenging. In addition to deformation and view-dependent lighting, tubular structures like the colon pre…
CholecTriplet2021: A benchmark challenge for surgical action triplet recognition
Chinedu Innocent Nwoye, Deepak Alapatt, Tong Yu +59
Context-aware decision support in the operating room can foster surgical safety and efficiency by leveraging real-time feedback from surgical workflow analysis. Most existing works…
Exploring Intra- and Inter-Video Relation for Surgical Semantic Scene Segmentation
Yueming Jin, Yang Yu, Cheng Chen +3
Automatic surgical scene segmentation is fundamental for facilitating cognitive intelligence in the modern operating theatre. Previous works rely on conventional aggregation module…
Utility of Optical See-Through Head Mounted Displays in Augmented Reality-Assisted Surgery: A systematic review
Manuel Birlo, P. J. "Eddie'' Edwards, Matthew Clarkson +1
This article presents a systematic review of optical see-through head mounted display (OST-HMD) usage in augmented reality (AR) surgery applications from 2013 to 2020. Articles wer…
Organ Shape Sensing using Pneumatically Attachable Flexible Rails in Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Surgery
Aoife McDonald-Bowyer, Solène Dietsch, Emmanouil Dimitrakakis +4
In robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy, surgeons remove a part of a kidney often due to the presence of a mass. A drop-in ultrasound probe paired to a surgical robot is deployed t…
Design and Evaluation of the SoftSCREEN Capsule for Colonoscopy
Vanni Consumi, Lukas Lindenroth, Jeref Merlin +2
Colonoscopy is considered the golden standard for cancer screening of the lower gastrointestinal (GI) tract, with screening programs all over the world considering lowering the rec…
