A system and method for augmenting an endoscopic display during a medical procedure including capturing a real-time image of a working space within a body cavity during a medical procedure. A feature of interest in the image is identified to the system using eye tracking input, and a graphical tag is displayed on the image marking the feature.

Method of graphically tagging and recalling identified structures under visualization for robotic surgery

A system and method for augmenting an endoscopic display during a medical procedure including capturing a real-time image of a working space within a body cavity during a medical procedure. A feature of interest in the image is identified to the system using a user input handle of a surgical robotic system, and a graphical tag is displayed on the image marking the feature.

A system and method for augmenting an endoscopic display during a medical procedure including capturing a real-time image of a working space within a body cavity during a medical procedure. A feature of interest in the image is identified and an overlay is displayed on the image marking the feature. Computer vision is used to detect in real time changes in the image that are indicative of the feature of interest being at least partially obscured. In response to such detected changes, a quality of the overlay is altered, e.g. to make it more bright or opaque, based on the change in visibility of the feature of interest in the image.
