Researchers have developed SurgTEMP, a new multimodal LLM framework designed for surgical video question answering, specifically for laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedures. This framework addresses the limitations of current systems by incorporating temporal semantics and building hierarchical visual memory, including spatial and temporal components. To support its development and evaluation, a large dataset named CholeVidQA-32K was created, featuring over 32,000 question-answer pairs across various surgical assessment tasks. AI
