SurGNN: Explainable visual scene understanding and assessment of surgical skill using graph neural networks [PDF]
This paper explores how graph neural networks (GNNs) can be used to enhance visual scene understanding and surgical skill assessment. By using GNNs to analyze the complex visual data of surgical procedures represented as graph structures, relevant features can be extracted and surgical skill can be predicted.

Dynamic Scene Graph Representation for Surgical Video [PDF]
Surgical videos captured from microscopic or endoscopic imaging devices are rich but complex sources of information, depicting different tools and anatomical structures utilized during an extended amount of time. Despite containing crucial workflow information and being commonly recorded in many procedures, usage of surgical videos for automated ...

Surgical Gym: A high-performance GPU-based platform for reinforcement learning with surgical robots [PDF]
Recent advances in robot-assisted surgery have resulted in progressively more precise, efficient, and minimally invasive procedures, sparking a new era of robotic surgical intervention. This enables doctors, in collaborative interaction with robots, to perform traditional or minimally invasive surgeries with improved outcomes through smaller incisions.

En-block cytoreduction for advanced ovarian cancer
The standard treatment of advanced ovarian, fallopian tube and peritoneal cancer is cytoreductive surgery followed by platinum-based chemotherapy (du Bois et al., 2005). This type of cancer expands through the peritoneum, which is the thin and continuous

Multimodal Semantic Scene Graphs for Holistic Modeling of Surgical Procedures [PDF]
From a computer science viewpoint, a surgical domain model needs to be a conceptual one incorporating both behavior and data. It should therefore model actors, devices, tools, their complex interactions and data flow. To capture and model these, we take advantage of the latest computer vision methodologies for generating 3D scene graphs from camera ...
