The Robotic Instrument Segmentation (RIS) dataset is a segmentation dataset for various surgical instruments used in the da Vinci surgical robotic system. The dataset includes structures of four types of surgical instruments to be segmented, including rods and forceps, common in endoscopic surgical scenarios. The training set contains eight segments, each with 225 frames of surgical videos involving robotic intervention, while the test set contains eight segments of 75 frames each and two segments of 300 frames each.
Surgical navigation systems rely on their understanding of complex intraoperative visual scenes, and accurate segmentation of surgical instruments is an important component. The da Vinci surgical robot is widely used in endoscopic surgery, and accurate instrument recognition algorithms can help improve the precision of the surgical system and increase the success rate of surgeries. This dataset supports the further development of more precise surgical robot systems.
| Dimensions | Modality | Task Type | Anatomical Area | Number of Categories | Data Volume(Slices) | File Format |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2D | Endoscopy | Segmentation | Abdominal cavity | 4 | 3000 | .png |
| Dataset Statistics | size |
|---|---|
| min | 1920x1080 |
| median | 1920x1080 |
| max | 1920x1080 |
The number of occurrences and proportions of each category in the total 1800 frames of the training set were counted:
| Component | Shaft | Articulated Wrist | Clasper | Others |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Count | 1697 | 1721 | 1769 | 450 |
| Percentage | 94.28% | 95.61% | 98.28% | 25.00% |
The dataset provides annotation results of surgical instrument structures in each frame.
The file structure of this dataset is as follows, containing the image of each frame, camera correction information and mapping information.
