1. A method comprising:
receiving, at a processor, image data of an object inside a body cavity;
generating from the image data, with the processor, a representation of the object and the body cavity by transmitting at least a portion of the image data to an interface device;
determining from the representation, with the processor, a size of the object on a scale for the representation, wherein determining the size of the object includes establishing, with the interface device, a first reference point and a second reference point on the representation of the object;
comparing, with the processor, the size of the object with a predetermined maximum size to determine a removal status of the object by:
determining a first removal status when the size of the object is greater than the predetermined maximum size; and
determining a second removal status when the size of the object is less than the predetermined maximum size; and
augmenting, with the processor, the representation to include an indicator responsive to the removal status.
