Researchers study brain activity of surgeons for signs of cognitive overload
Team at Imperial College London say techniques could be used to flag warning signs during surgery.
It is a high-stakes scenario for any surgeon: a 65-year-old male patient with a high BMI and a heart condition is undergoing emergency surgery for a perforated appendix.
This kind of drama routinely plays out in operating theatres, but in this case trainee surgeon Mary Goble is being put through her paces by a team of researchers at Imperial College London who are studying what goes on inside the brains of surgeons as they perform life-or-death procedures.
Goble looks cool and collected as she laparoscopically excises the silicon appendix, while fending off a barrage of distractions. But her brain activity, monitored through a cap covered in optical probes, may tell a different story.
Dr Mary Goble, a first year specialising in surgery attempts a simulated appendectomy at the Surgical Innovation Centre at St Mary's hospital in Paddington, west London, UK.

Dominic Matteo: 'Basically, I played my whole football career with a brain tumour'
Former Liverpool and Leeds player Dominic Matteo on losing his memory, hitting ‘rock bottom' with a gambling addiction and his road to recovery.
Matteo, 49, is sitting with Jess reflecting on his recovery from November 2019 surgery on a cancerous brain tumour. The day their lives changed forever began relatively calmly. Matteo had experienced a headache here, a bout of sickness there, but it was all easily attributable to other sources.
His GP had referred him for an MRI scan.
Matteo the footballer had had many scans. "Usually, they take a while, but I was in for what felt like a minute," he says. "They must have seen something straight away." He was not allowed to leave hospital that Monday night. By Wednesday, he was in a wheelchair, his vision blurred and his face distorted.
Dominic Matteo photopraphed at his home near Halifax in West Yorkshire. Dominic Matteo is a Scotish former professional footballer who played as a defender and midfielder in a 17-year professional career from 1992 to 2009. Matteo played for Liverpool, Sunderland, Leeds United, Blackburn Rovers and Stoke City. In November 2019, Matteo underwent surgery on a brain tumour, and was declared fully recovered in April the following year.

Matteo, 49, is sitting with Jess reflecting on his recovery from November 2019 surgery on a cancerous brain tumour. The day their lives changed forever began relatively calmly. Matteo had experienced a headache here, a bout of sickness there, but it was all easily attributable to other sources.
His GP had referred him for an MRI scan.
Matteo the footballer had had many scans. "Usually, they take a while, but I was in for what felt like a minute," he says. "They must have seen something straight away." He was not allowed to leave hospital that Monday night. By Wednesday, he was in a wheelchair, his vision blurred and his face distorted.
Dominic Matteo and his wife Jessica photographed at their home near Halifax in West Yorkshire. Dominic Matteo is a Scotish former professional footballer who played as a defender and midfielder in a 17-year professional career from 1992 to 2009. Matteo played for Liverpool, Sunderland, Leeds United, Blackburn Rovers and Stoke City. In November 2019, Matteo underwent surgery on a brain tumour, and was declared fully recovered in April the following year.

The Guardian Footballer of the Year Virginia Torrecilla: 'When people say I'm a fighter, it's lovely'
Atletico Madrid's Virginia Torrecilla at her home in Madrid this month with her Guardian Footballer of the Year trophy.
The Atletico Madrid midfielder is back playing after cancer and being 'sunk' by an accident that left her mother in a wheelchair.
The Guardian Footballer of the Year is an award given to a player who has done something remarkable, whether by overcoming adversity, helping others or setting a sporting example by acting with exceptional honesty.
Virginia Torrecilla had been through 13 months of treatment, 30 rounds of radiotherapy, 15 cycles of chemo, hair slowly returning a year after the removal of a brain tumour, and was "starting to feel like I could go on at last" when she was involved in the car crash that left her in a deep depression and put her mother, Mari, in a wheelchair.
