ORBSLAM-based Endoscope Tracking and 3D Reconstruction [PDF]
We aim to track the endoscope location inside the surgical scene and provide 3D reconstruction, in real-time, from the sole input of the image sequence captured by the monocular endoscope. This information offers new possibilities for developing surgical navigation and augmented reality applications.

A Deep Learning Based 6 Degree-of-Freedom Localization Method for Endoscopic Capsule Robots [PDF]
We present a robust deep learning based 6 degrees-of-freedom (DoF) localization system for endoscopic capsule robots. Our system mainly focuses on localization of endoscopic capsule robots inside the GI tract using only visual information captured by a mono camera integrated to the robot.

Improved spot formation for flexible multi-mode fiber endoscope using partial reflector [PDF]
Multi-mode fiber (MMF) endoscopes are a new type of endoscope that use only a single optical fiber to transmit images, achieving much higher spatial resolution for a given diameter than commercial fiber bundle endoscopes. However, a drawback of MMF endoscopes is that imaging quality degrades substantially as the MMF is perturbed.

Non-endoscopic Mechanical Endonasal Dacryocystorhinostomy
To circumvent the disadvantages of endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy such as small rhinostomy size, high failure rate and expensive equipment, we hereby introduce a modified technique of non-endoscopic mechanical endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy (NE-MEDCR).

FLex: Joint Pose and Dynamic Radiance Fields Optimization for Stereo Endoscopic Videos [PDF]
Reconstruction of endoscopic scenes is an important asset for various medical applications, from post-surgery analysis to educational training. Neural rendering has recently shown promising results in endoscopic reconstruction with deforming tissue.

Chained Flexible Capsule Endoscope: Unraveling the Conundrum of Size Limitations and Functional Integration for Gastrointestinal Transitivity [PDF]
Capsule endoscopes, predominantly serving diagnostic functions, provide lucid internal imagery but are devoid of surgical or therapeutic capabilities. Consequently, despite lesion detection, physicians frequently resort to traditional endoscopic or open surgical procedures for treatment, resulting in more complex, potentially risky interventions.
