    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Surgical Technology
    • Computer Vision

    Background:

    • Minimally invasive surgery often utilizes stereo endoscopes with shallow depth of field, necessitating frequent focus adjustments.
    • These focus changes invalidate prior camera calibration, posing a significant challenge for image-guided applications reliant on accurate geometric parameters.
    • Recalibration during surgery disrupts workflow and hinders the adoption of advanced image guidance technologies.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a novel calibration method for stereo endoscopes that accounts for focus variations during minimally invasive procedures.
    • To reduce the complexity of calibration by modeling the endoscope's behavior across its focus range.
    • To enable robust image guidance without workflow disruption or specialized hardware.

    Main Methods:

    • A model was constructed to represent the stereo endoscope's parameters across a continuum of focus settings, reducing calibration degrees of freedom.
    • A single view of reference geometry was used to uniquely determine the calibration parameters.
    • The method requires no special hardware or proprietary interface access.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed method successfully models stereo endoscope focus changes, allowing for unique calibration with minimal input.
    • Quantitative analysis confirmed that the resulting intrinsic and extrinsic parameters yield calibration accuracy comparable to traditional multi-view methods.
    • The technique is ready for evaluation in clinical settings.

    Conclusions:

    • A novel, efficient method for stereo endoscope calibration has been developed, addressing the challenge of focus variation in surgical settings.
    • This approach significantly enhances the feasibility and workflow integration of image guidance systems in minimally invasive surgery.
    • The technique offers accurate calibration without specialized equipment, paving the way for wider adoption of intraoperative image guidance.
