Due to the difficulty of collecting real paired data, most existing desmoking methods train the
models by synthesizing smoke, generalizing poorly to real surgical scenarios. Although a …

Surgical smoke caused poor visibility during laparoscopic surgery, the smoke removal is
important to improve the safety and efficiency of the surgery. We propose the Multilevel …

Purpose Robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery has become the trend in medicine thanks to
its convenience and lower risk of infection against traditional open surgery. However, the …

A plain-architecture and effective image dehazing scheme, called Encoder-Decoder
Network with Guided Transmission Map (EDN-GTM), is proposed in this paper. Nowadays …

Smoke generated during laparoscopic surgery blocks the doctor's sight and degrades the
quality of the images severely; thus, surgical de-smoking is a crucial task during …

In laparoscopic surgery, image quality is often degraded by surgical smoke or by side effects
of the illumination system, such as reflections, specularities, and non-uniform illumination …

Purpose A clear surgical field of view is a prerequisite for successful laparoscopic surgery.
Surgical smoke, image blur, and lens fogging can affect the clarity of laparoscopic imaging …

Though deep learning-based surgical smoke removal methods have shown significant
improvements in effectiveness and efficiency, the lack of paired smoke and smoke-free …

In laparoscopic surgery, the smoke generated by operations including electrocautery and
laser ablation seriously degrades the quality of endoscopic images. It not only reduces the …

In minimally invasive surgery, endoscopic image quality plays a crucial role in surgery.
Aiming at the lack of a real parallax in binocular endoscopic images, this article proposes an …
