摘要

Segmentation of surgical instruments is crucial for enhancing surgeon performance and ensuring patient safety. Conventional techniques share a common drawback: they do not accommodate the parts of instruments obscured by tissues or other instruments. Precisely predicting the full extent of occluded instruments can significantly improve laparoscopic surgeries by providing critical guidance during operations and assisting in the analysis of potential surgical errors, as well as serving educational purposes. In this paper, we introduce amodal segmentation to the realm of surgical instruments in the medical field. We propose a new Amodal Instruments Segmentation (AIS) dataset, which was developed by reannotating each instrument with its complete mask, utilizing the 2017 MICCAI EndoVis Robotic Instrument Segmentation Challenge dataset. It includes 10 videos with a total of 3,000 frames and 7,084 instances. Additionally, we evaluate several typical segmentation methods to establish a benchmark for this new dataset.
