Intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT) has been reported for the visualisation of ophthalmic surgical manoeuvres, where deep learning methods can be used for real-time tissue segmentation and surgical tool tracking. However, many of these methods rely heavily on labelled datasets, where producing annotated segmentation datasets is a time-consuming and tedious task.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>To address this challenge, we propose a robust and efficient semi-supervised method for boundary segmentation in retinal OCT to guide a robotic surgical system. The proposed method uses U-Net as the base model and implements a pseudo-labelling strategy which combines the labelled data with unlabelled OCT scans during training. After training, the model is optimised and accelerated with the use of TensorRT.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Compared with fully supervised learning, the pseudo-labelling method can improve the generalisability of the model and show better performance for unseen data from a different distribution using only 2% of labelled training samples. The accelerated GPU inference takes less than 1 millisecond per frame with FP16 precision.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Our approach demonstrates the potential of using pseudo-labelling strategies in real-time OCT segmentation tasks to guide robotic systems. Furthermore, the accelerated GPU inference of our network is highly promising for segmenting OCT images and guiding the position of a surgical tool (e.g. needle) for sub-retinal injections.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s11548-023-02928-9","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,26]],"date-time":"2023-05-26T13:02:46Z","timestamp":1685106166000},"page":"1245-1252","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["PseudoSegRT: efficient pseudo-labelling for intraoperative OCT segmentation"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Yu","family":"Huang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Riaz","family":"Asaria","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Danail","family":"Stoyanov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marinko","family":"Sarunic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1329-4565","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sophia","family":"Bano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,26]]},"reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"2928_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"20","DOI":"10.4103\/ijo.IJO_902_17","volume":"66","author":"M Bhende","year":"2018","unstructured":"Bhende M, Shetty S, Parthasarathy MK, Ramya S (2018) Optical coherence tomography: a guide to interpretation of common macular diseases.
