Laparoscopic surgery augmentation through vibro-acoustic sensing of instrument-tissue interactions

This paper presents the use of vibro-acoustic sensing to augment laparoscopic surgery procedures by analyzing the signals produced during cutting and palpation tasks on various tissue samples. Vibro-acoustic signals were acquired during an experiment on a dedicated phantom covered in dense foam, whe...

description This paper presents the use of vibro-acoustic sensing to augment laparoscopic surgery procedures by analyzing the signals produced during cutting and palpation tasks on various tissue samples. Vibro-acoustic signals were acquired during an experiment on a dedicated phantom covered in dense foam, where three trocars were inserted into the phantom to place the endoscopic camera and two laparoscopic instruments. The results of the signals analysis demonstrate the potential of this approach for making laparoscopic interactions audible, differentiating between tissue types, and detecting variations in tissue properties. Vibro-acoustic sensing could be a valuable tool for integrating sound into the current clinical workflow for enhancing endoscope video images.
