Real-Time Artificial Intelligence Assistance for Safe Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: Early-Stage Clinical Evaluation [PDF]
Artificial intelligence is set to be deployed in operating rooms to improve surgical care. This early-stage clinical evaluation shows the feasibility of concurrently attaining real-time, high-quality predictions from several deep neural networks for endoscopic video analysis deployed for assistance during three laparoscopic cholecystectomies.

Speckle-illumination spatial frequency domain imaging with a stereo laparoscope for profile-corrected optical property mapping [PDF]
We introduce a compact, two-camera laparoscope that combines active stereo depth estimation and speckle-illumination spatial frequency domain imaging (si-SFDI) to map profile-corrected, pixel-level absorption and reduced scattering optical properties in tissues with complex geometries.

"Train one, Classify one, Teach one" -- Cross-surgery transfer learning for surgical step recognition [PDF]
Prior work demonstrated the ability of machine learning to automatically recognize surgical workflow steps from videos. However, these studies focused on only a single type of procedure. In this work, we analyze, for the first time, surgical step recognition on four different laparoscopic surgeries: Cholecystectomy, Right Hemicolectomy, Sleeve ...

Pyloric duplication cyst with associated hypertrophic stenosis: A potential causal relationship
A 2-week-old baby girl was transferred to our facility with a suspected diagnosis hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. The diagnosis was confirmed by ultrasound, however an adjacent cystic structure was noted in close proximity to the pylorus concerning for a ...

Breaking Barriers in Robotic Soft Tissue Surgery: Conditional Autonomous Intestinal Anastomosis [PDF]
Autonomous robotic surgery has the potential to provide efficacy, safety, and consistency independent of individual surgeons skill and experience. Autonomous soft-tissue surgery in unstructured and deformable environments is especially challenging as it necessitates intricate imaging, tissue tracking and surgical planning techniques, as well as a ...

A Smoke Removal Method for Laparoscopic Images [PDF]
In laparoscopic surgery, image quality can be severely degraded by surgical smoke, which not only introduces error for the image processing (used in image guided surgery), but also reduces the visibility of the surgeons. In this paper, we propose to enhance the laparoscopic images by decomposing them into unwanted smoke part and enhanced part using a ...

Meta-analysis of Laparoscopic Versus Open Pyloromyotomy
To perform a meta-analysis of studies comparing open pyloromyotomy (OP) and laparoscopic pyloromyotomy (LP) in the treatment of infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis.LP has become increasingly popular for the management of pyloric stenosis. Despite a decade of experience, the real benefit of LP over the open procedure remains unclear.Using a defined ...
