Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research aimed to innovate ophthalmic surgery techniques through the aggregation of various intraoperative information. During this aggregation, it was found that various intraoperative noises posed obstacles, hence frameworks utilizing deep learning were developed to address each problem. The research included the development of an environment for the acquisition and presentation of three-dimensional information using camera and OCT data. This allowed for the real-time reconstruction of depth information and facilitated the rendering and annotation within VR goggles, establishing the foundation for intraoperative information aggregation. Additionally, technologies for recognizing the location of bleeding and ophthalmic instruments were developed using deep learning to tackle the issue of visual field obstruction. The combination of these techniques is believed to contribute to the improvement of accuracy and efficiency in ophthalmic surgery.
