Paper in M2CAI 2016 (MICCAI workshop) on “Fine-tuning Deep Architectures for Surgical Tool Detection and results of Tool Detection Challange”

Paper [bibtex key= 2016-Zia-FDASTD] Abstract Understanding surgical workflow has been a key concern of the medical research community. One of the main advantages of surgical workflow detection is real-time operating room (OR) scheduling. For hospitals, each minute of OR time is important in order to reduce cost and increase patient throughput. Traditional approaches in this […]

Paper in MICCAI (2015): "Automated Assessment of Surgical Skills Using Frequency Analysis"

Paper [bibtex file=IrfanEssaWS.bib key=2015-Zia-AASSUFA] Abstract We present an automated framework for a visual assessment of the expertise level of surgeons using the OSATS (Objective Structured Assessment of Technical Skills) criteria. Video analysis technique for extracting motion quality via  frequency coefficients is introduced. The framework is tested in a case study that involved analysis of videos of medical students with different expertise […]

Paper in MICCAI 2014 workshop on M2CAI on “Video Based Assessment of OSATS Using Sequential Motion Textures”

Paper Abstract A fully automated framework for video-based surgical skill assessment is presented that incorporates the sequential and qualitative aspects of surgical motion in a data-driven manner. The Objective Structured Assessment of Technical Skills (OSATS) assessments is replicated, which provides both an overall and in-detail evaluation of basic suturing skills required for surgeons. Video analysis […]

Paper in MICCAI (2007) on “A Boosted Segmentation Method for Surgical Workflow Analysis”

Abstract As demands on hospital efficiency increase, there is a stronger need for automatic analysis, recovery, and modification of surgical workflows. Even though most of the previous work has dealt with higher level and hospital-wide workflow including issues like document management, the workflow is also an important issue within the surgery room. Its study has […]
