AI-powered monitoring of out-of-body idle time in laparoscopic general surgery: economic and intraoperative implications

In laparoscopic surgery, uninterrupted visualization is essential for efficiency and safety. Temporary laparoscope withdrawal for image-quality restoration results in “out-of-body” (OOB) time, a historically unquantified workflow disruption. Advances in artificial intelligence (AI)-based computer vision enable la...
