  • Publication number: 20230410298
    Abstract: The system includes a memory that stores a trained model, and a processor. The processor acquires a pre-treatment image in which at least one energy device and at least one biological tissue are imaged, and a state before application of energy is imaged. The processor estimates an estimated heat diffusion region from the pre-treatment image and information regarding an energy supply amount by processing based on a trained model stored in the memory. The processor superimposes the estimated heat diffusion region on a captured image of the camera and displays the captured image with the superimposed estimated heat diffusion region.

  • Publication number: 20230380695
    Abstract: The system includes a memory that stores first and second trained models, and a processor. The processor acquires a captured image in which at least one energy device and at least one biological tissue are imaged. The processor detects a bounding box from the captured image by processing based on the first trained model and estimates the image recognition information from the captured image in the bounding box by processing based on the second trained model. The processor outputs an energy output adjustment instruction based on the estimated image recognition information to the generator. The generator controls the energy supply amount to the energy device based on the energy output adjustment instruction.
