    Area of Science:

    • Medical Robotics
    • Computer Vision
    • Surgical Navigation

    Background:

    • Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) is crucial for 3-D model estimation in robotics.
    • Medical endoscopic sequences present unique challenges for SLAM due to unknown trajectories and cavities.
    • Validation of SLAM in human in vivo endoscopic data is limited.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and validate a monocular visual SLAM algorithm for medical endoscopic sequences.
    • To provide an up-to-scale 3-D map and endoscope trajectory in real time.
    • To assess the feasibility and accuracy of SLAM in clinical surgical scenarios.

    Main Methods:

    • A monocular visual SLAM algorithm specifically adapted for medical image sequences was proposed.
    • The algorithm was tested on synthetic data and in vivo human endoscopic sequences from 15 laparoscopic hernioplasties.
    • Ground-truth distances were used to validate the accuracy of the generated 3-D maps and trajectories.

    Main Results:

    • The algorithm successfully generated real-time, up-to-scale 3-D maps and endoscope trajectories.
    • Validation confirmed high accuracy against ground-truth measurements.
    • The method demonstrated robustness across different patients and surgical conditions.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed SLAM algorithm is noninvasive, convenient, and fast, providing real-time 3-D surgical mapping.
    • It offers an accurate and robust solution for endoscopic navigation.
    • This technology has significant potential for enhancing surgical procedures and training.
