    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for automatic control of surgical site temperature during an endoscopic procedure are disclosed. An exemplary endoscopic surgical system comprises an endoscopic surgical device controllably coupled to a medical instrument to deliver energy to a surgical site during a procedure, an imaging sensor to generate images or video frames of at least a portion of the surgical site during the procedure, and a controller circuit to analyze the generated images or video frames to determine whether a degree of heat built up in a first target at the surgical site exceeds a predetermined threshold. Based on such determination, the controller circuit can determine whether to adjust at least one operating parameter associated with the endoscopic surgical system to achieve or maintain a treatment effect of a different second target at the surgical site while avoid damaging the first target during the procedure.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for automatic control of surgical site temperature during an endoscopic procedure are disclosed. An exemplary endoscopic surgical system comprises a endoscopic surgical device controllably coupled to a medical instrument to deliver energy to an anatomical target at a surgical site, a temperature sensor to measure temperatures at the surgical site at different times during the procedure, and a controller circuit to generate a temperature trend or a prediction of future temperature at the surgical site using the temperature measurements. Based at least in part on the generated temperature trend or the prediction of future temperature at the surgical site, the controller circuit can adjust at least one operating parameter associated with the endoscopic surgical system to achieve or maintain substantially a desired temperature at the surgical site during the procedure to prevent, or reduce the severity of, laser-induced tissue thermal damage.
