Comprehensive Robotic Cholecystectomy Dataset (CRCD)
The Comprehensive Robotic Cholecystectomy Dataset (CRCD) is a large-scale, multimodal dataset for robot-assisted surgery (RAS) research.
It provides synchronized endoscopic videos, da Vinci surgical robot kinematics, and pedal usage signals, making it one of the most comprehensive open datasets for studying robotic cholecystectomy procedures.
CRCD supports research in:
- Medical robotics and surgical automation
- Computer vision for endoscopic surgery
- Surgical workflow analysis and phase recognition
- Instrument tracking and tissue segmentation
- AI and machine learning in healthcare
Updates
- Sep 30, 2025: Corrected video timestamps for improved synchronization and cleaned up the dataset for easier use.

- Additional Information: Stereo endoscopic camera calibration and surgeon background data (link)
Dataset Creation
CRCD was collected during robotic cholecystectomy procedures performed on the da Vinci surgical system.
Each case includes:
- High-resolution endoscopic video
- Robot kinematic data (ECM, MTML, MTMR, PSM1, PSM2)
- Surgeon pedal signals (clutch, camera, monopolar, bipolar)
Several surgeons with different levels of expertise participated, enabling research on skill assessment, workflow modeling, and training.
