• Abstract: Purpose: Preoperative imaging plays a pivotal role in sinus surgery where CTs offer patient-specific insights of complex anatomy, enabling real-time intraoperative navigation to complement endoscopy imaging. However, surgery elicits anatomical changes not represented in the preoperative model, generating an inaccurate basis for navigation during surgery progression. Methods: We propose a first vision-based approach to update the preoperative 3D anatomical model leveraging intraoperative endoscopic video for navigated sinus surgery where relative camera poses are known. We rely on comparisons of intraoperative monocular depth estimates and preoperative depth renders to identify modified regions. The new depths are integrated in these regions through volumetric fusion in a truncated signed distance function representation to generate an intraoperative 3D model that reflects tissue manipulation. Results: We quantitatively evaluate our approach by sequentially updating models for a five-step surgical progression in an ex vivo specimen. We compute the error between correspondences from the updated model and ground-truth intraoperative CT in the region of anatomical modification. The resulting models show a decrease in error during surgical progression as opposed to increasing when no update is employed. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that preoperative 3D anatomical models can be updated using intraoperative endoscopy video in navigated sinus surgery. Future work will investigate improvements to monocular depth estimation as well as removing the need for external navigation systems. The resulting ability to continuously update the patient model may provide surgeons with a more precise understanding of the current anatomical state and paves the way toward a digital twin paradigm for sinus surgery.

  Surgery digitalization is the process of creating a virtual replica of real-world surgery. We present a proof of concept (PoC) for surgery digitalization that is applied to an ex-vivo spinal surgery. We employ five RGB-D cameras for dynamic 3D reconstruction of the surgeon, a high-end camera for 3D reconstruction of the anatomy, an infrared stereo camera for surgical instrument tracking, and a laser scanner for 3D reconstruction of the operating room and data fusion.

• An objective comparison of methods for augmented reality in laparoscopic liver resection by preoperative-to-intraoperative image fusion [33.12510773034339]
  Augmented reality for laparoscopic liver resection is a visualisation mode that allows a surgeon to localise tumours and vessels embedded within the liver by projecting them on top of a laparoscopic image. Most of the algorithms make use of anatomical landmarks to guide registration. These landmarks include the liver's inferior ridge, the falciform ligament, and the occluding contours. We present the Preoperative-to-Intraoperative Laparoscopic Fusion Challenge (P2ILF), which investigates the possibilities of detecting these landmarks automatically and using them in registration.

  We design a foundation model-based depth estimation method, referred to as Surgical-DINO, a low-rank adaptation of the DINOv2 for depth estimation in endoscopic surgery. We build LoRA layers and integrate them into DINO to adapt with surgery-specific domain knowledge instead of conventional fine-tuning. Our model is extensively validated on a MICCAI challenge dataset of SCARED, which is collected from da Vinci Xi endoscope surgery.

  We perform a quantitative analysis of a self-supervised approach for sinus reconstruction using endoscopic sequences and optical tracking. Our results show that the generated reconstructions are in high agreement with the anatomy, yielding an average point-to-mesh error of 0.91 mm. We identify that pose and depth estimation inaccuracies contribute equally to this error and that locally consistent sequences with shorter trajectories generate more accurate reconstructions.
