Accurate 6-DoF pose estimation of surgical instruments during minimally
invasive surgeries can substantially improve treatment strategies and eventual
surgical outcome. Existing deep learning methods have achieved accurate
results, but they require custom approaches for each object and laborious setup
and training environments often stretching to extensive simulations, whilst
lacking real-time computation. We propose a general-purpose approach of data
acquisition for 6-DoF pose estimation tasks in X-ray systems, a novel and
general purpose YOLOv5-6D pose architecture for accurate and fast object pose
estimation and a complete method for surgical screw pose estimation under
acquisition geometry consideration from a monocular cone-beam X-ray image. The
proposed YOLOv5-6D pose model achieves competitive results on public benchmarks
whilst being considerably faster at 42 FPS on GPU. In addition, the method
generalizes across varying X-ray acquisition geometry and semantic image
complexity to enable accurate pose estimation over different domains. Finally,
the proposed approach is tested for bone-screw pose estimation for
computer-aided guidance during spine surgeries. The model achieves a 92.41% by
the 0.1 ADD-S metric, demonstrating a promising approach for enhancing surgical
precision and patient outcomes. The code for YOLOv5-6D is publicly available at
