Background:

Specular reflections (SR) in endoscopic images hinder surgical performance.
Accurate detection of SR is crucial for minimally invasive surgery.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop an automatic specular reflection detection method for endoscopic images.
To improve the quality of endoscopic images for surgical applications.

Main Methods:

Proposed a novel method for automatic SR detection using intrinsic image layer separation (IILS).
Method involves image normalization, high gradient area extraction, color model-based SR separation, and image melding for reconstruction.
Experiments conducted on 912 endoscopic images from CVC-EndoSceneStill dataset.

Main Results:

The proposed IILS-based method demonstrated superior performance over state-of-the-art methods.
Achieved high accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision, Jaccard index, and Dice coefficient.
Quantitative and qualitative assessments confirmed the method's effectiveness.

Conclusions:

The IILS-based SR detection method is a promising preprocessing step for endoscopic image analysis.
The technique enhances the reliability and performance of minimally invasive surgery.
