Abstract

Systems and methods for analyzing complexity of surgical footage are disclosed. A system may include at least one processor configured to analyze frames of the surgical footage to identify an anatomical structure in a first set of frames. The processor may access first historical data based on an analysis of first frame data captured from a first group of surgical procedures and analyze the first set of frames to determine a first complexity level. The processor may analyze the surgical footage to identify in a second set of frames a medical tool, an anatomical structure, and an interaction between the medical tool and the anatomical structure. The processor may access second historical data based on an analysis of a second frame data captured from a second group of surgical procedures and analyze the second set of frames to determine a second complexity level associated with the second set of frames.
