Abstract In minimally invasive surgery, endoscopes or laparoscopes equipped with miniature cameras and tools are used to enter the human body for therapeutic purposes through small incisions or natural cavities. However, in clinical operating environments, endoscopic images often suffer from challenges such as low texture, uneven illumination, and non-rigid structures, which affect feature observation and extraction. This can severely impact surgical navigation or clinical diagnosis due to missing feature points in endoscopic images, leading to treatment and postoperative recovery issues for patients. To address these challenges, this paper introduces, for the first time, a Cross-Channel Multi-Modal… More >
