Operating Room

Operating rooms are increasingly the focus of research aimed at improving surgical workflow, patient safety, and overall efficiency. Current research emphasizes the application of computer vision, deep learning (including convolutional neural networks and U-Net architectures), and multimodal data fusion (combining video, sensor, and physiological data) to automate tasks such as instrument tracking, activity recognition, and cognitive workload assessment. These advancements hold significant promise for optimizing surgical procedures, enhancing training, and improving patient outcomes through improved situation awareness and real-time assistance.
