YOLOv7-RepFPN: Improving real-time performance of laparoscopic tool detection on embedded systems Invited Reviewed

Healthcare Technology Letters 2024

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

This study focuses on enhancing the inference speed of laparoscopic tool detection on embedded devices. Laparoscopy, a minimally invasive surgery technique, markedly reduces patient recovery times and postoperative complications. Real-time laparoscopic tool detection helps assisting laparoscopy by providing information for surgical navigation, and its implementation on embedded devices is gaining interest due to the portability, network independence and scalability of the devices. However, embedded devices often face computation resource limitations, potentially hindering inference speed. To mitigate this concern, the work introduces a two-fold modification to the YOLOv7 model: the feature channels and integrate RepBlock is halved, yielding the YOLOv7-RepFPN model. This configuration leads to a significant reduction in computational complexity. Additionally, the focal EIoU (efficient intersection of union) loss function is employed for bounding box regression. Experimental results on an embedded device demonstrate that for frame-by-frame laparoscopic tool detection, the proposed YOLOv7-RepFPN achieved an mAP of 88.2% (with IoU set to 0.5) on a custom dataset based on EndoVis17, and an inference speed of 62.9 FPS. Contrasting with the original YOLOv7, which garnered an 89.3% mAP and 41.8 FPS under identical conditions, the methodology enhances the speed by 21.1 FPS while maintaining detection accuracy. This emphasizes the effectiveness of the work.

Towards better laparoscopic video segmentation: A class-wise contrastive learning approach with multi-scale feature extraction Invited Reviewed

Luyang Zhang, Yuichiro Hayashi, Masahiro Oda, Kensaku Mori

Healthcare Technology Letters 2024

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

The task of segmentation is integral to computer-aided surgery systems. Given the privacy concerns associated with medical data, collecting a large amount of annotated data for training is challenging. Unsupervised learning techniques, such as contrastive learning, have shown powerful capabilities in learning image-level representations from unlabelled data. This study leverages classification labels to enhance the accuracy of the segmentation model trained on limited annotated data. The method uses a multi-scale projection head to extract image features at various scales. The partitioning method for positive sample pairs is then improved to perform contrastive learning on the extracted features at each scale to effectively represent the differences between positive and negative samples in contrastive learning. Furthermore, the model is trained simultaneously with both segmentation labels and classification labels. This enables the model to extract features more effectively from each segmentation target class and further accelerates the convergence speed. The method was validated using the publicly available CholecSeg8k dataset for comprehensive abdominal cavity surgical segmentation. Compared to select existing methods, the proposed approach significantly enhances segmentation performance, even with a small labelled subset (1–10%) of the dataset, showcasing a superior intersection over union (IoU) score.

Revisiting instrument segmentation: Learning from decentralized surgical sequences with various imperfect annotations Invited Reviewed

Healthcare Technology Letters 2024

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

This paper focuses on a new and challenging problem related to instrument segmentation. This paper aims to learn a generalizable model from distributed datasets with various imperfect annotations. Collecting a large-scale dataset for centralized learning is usually impeded due to data silos and privacy issues. Besides, local clients, such as hospitals or medical institutes, may hold datasets with diverse and imperfect annotations. These datasets can include scarce annotations (many samples are unlabelled), noisy labels prone to errors, and scribble annotations with less precision. Federated learning (FL) has emerged as an attractive paradigm for developing global models with these locally distributed datasets. However, its potential in instrument segmentation has yet to be fully investigated. Moreover, the problem of learning from various imperfect annotations in an FL setup is rarely studied, even though it presents a more practical and beneficial scenario. This work rethinks instrument segmentation in such a setting and propose a practical FL framework for this issue. Notably, this approach surpassed centralized learning under various imperfect annotation settings. This method established a foundational benchmark, and future work can build upon it by considering each client owning various annotations and aligning closer with real-world complexities.

PURPOSE: Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) using a thoraco- or laparoscope is becoming a more common surgical technique. In MIS, a magnified view from a thoracoscope helps surgeons conduct precise operations. However, there is a risk of the visible area becoming narrow. To confirm that the operation field is safe, the surgeon will draw the thoracoscope back to check the marginal area of the target and insert it again many times during MIS. To reduce the surgeon's load, we aim to visualize the entire thoracic cavity using a newly developed device called "panorama vision ring" (PVR). METHOD: The PVR is used instead of a wound retractor or a trocar. It is a ring-type socket with one big hole for the thoracoscope and four small holes for tiny cameras placed around the big hole. The views from the tiny cameras are fused into one wider view that visualizes the entire thoracic cavity. A surgeon can proceed with an operation by checking what exists outside of the thoracoscopic view. Also, she/he can check whether or not bleeding has occurred from the image of the entire cavity. RESULTS: We evaluated the view-expansion ability of the PVR by using a three-dimensional full-scale thoracic model. The experimental results showed that the entire thoracic cavity could be visible in a panoramic view generated by the PVR. We also demonstrated pulmonary lobectomy in virtual MIS using the PVR. Surgeons could perform a pulmonary lobectomy while checking the entire cavity. CONCLUSION: We developed the PVR, which uses tiny auxiliary cameras to create a panoramic view of the entire thoracic cavity during MIS. We aim to make MIS safer for patients and more comfortable for surgeons through the development of the PVR.
