Objectives: Manually-collected suturing technical skill scores are strong predictors of continence recovery after robotic radical prostatectomy. Herein, we automate suturing technical skill scoring through computer vision (CV) methods as a scalable method to provide feedback.
Methods: Twenty-two surgeons completed a suturing exercise three times on the Mimic™ Flex VR simulator.
