    Area of Science:

    • Computer Vision
    • Medical Imaging
    • Robotics

    Background:

    • Self-supervised learning (SSL) excels in monocular depth and ego-motion estimation.
    • Endoscopic scenes present unique challenges: specular reflections and soft tissue deformation hinder SSL accuracy.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a robust SSL method for monocular depth estimation in challenging endoscopic environments.
    • To enhance accuracy by addressing specular reflections and soft tissue deformations.

    Main Methods:

    • Introduced an image distance transform strategy for handling specular reflections.
    • Proposed a biomechanical soft tissue deformation constraint to improve pixel-level accuracy.
    • Employed a lightweight architecture for efficient computation and faster inference.

    Main Results:

    • Achieved robust monocular depth estimation on public (SCARED, SERV-CT) and custom datasets.
    • Demonstrated comparable accuracy and robustness to state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods.
    • Attained an RMSE of 4.96 mm with only 2.25M parameters on the SCARED dataset.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed method effectively overcomes limitations of existing SSL techniques in endoscopic vision.
    • The approach shows significant potential for clinical applications in computer-assisted surgical navigation.
    • Offers a balance of accuracy, robustness, and computational efficiency for real-time performance.
