an image receiving module configured to receive image data from a first device connected to the console;

an image processing module in communication with the image receiving module, the image processing module configured to process the received image data to determine tissue characteristic data;

a mode determination module in communication with the image processing module, the mode determination module configured to determine, based on the tissue characteristic data, an operation mode of a second device connected to the console; and

a control module in communication with the mode determination module, the control module configured to control an operation of the second device based on the determined operation mode;

wherein the second device has a plurality of operation modes comprising (1) a first mode in which the second device operates in an absence of any input from the image processing module and (2) a second mode that deactivates an energy from the second device when the second device is within a predetermined distance to an issue determined to have a first tissue characteristic.
