Dynamic surface reconstruction in robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery based on neural radiance fields

ConclusionOur proposed depth estimation network and reconstruction framework provide a significant contribution to the field of surgical scene perception. The framework achieves better results than SOTA methods on medical datasets, reducing mismatches on depth maps and resulting in more accurate depth maps with clearer edges. The proposed ER framework is verified on a series of dynamic cardiac surgical images. Future efforts will focus on improving the training speed and solving the problem of limited field of view.
