    摘要: A system and method for visualization of subsurface anatomy includes obtaining a first image from a first camera and a second image from a second camera or a second channel of the first camera, where the first and second images contain shared anatomical structures. The second camera and the second channel of the first camera are capable of imaging anatomy beneath the surface in ultra-violet, visual, or infra-red spectrum. A data processor is configured for computing registration of the first image to the second image to provide visualization of subsurface anatomy during surgical procedures. A visual interface displays the registered visualization of the first and second images. The system and method are particularly useful for imaging during minimally invasive surgery, such as robotic surgery.

    摘要: According to some embodiments of the present invention, a system for stereo reconstruction from a monoscopic endoscope is provided. The monoscopic endoscope comprising an image pick-up element at a distal end thereof and a working channel defined by a body of the monoscopic endoscope. The working channel provides a port at the distal end of the monoscopic endoscope. The system for stereo reconstruction comprises a light patterning component configured to be disposed within the working channel of the monoscopic endoscope such that a light emitting end of the light patterning component will be fixed with a defined relative distance from the distal end of the image pick-up element. The system for stereo reconstruction also includes a data processor adapted to be in communication with the image pick-up element. The light patterning component forms a pattern of light that is projected onto a region of interest. The data processor is configured to receive an image signal of the region of interest that includes the pattern, and determine a distance from the endoscope to the region of interest based on the image signal and based on the defined relative distance between the light emitting end of the light patterning component and the distal end of the image pick-up element.

    摘要: Disclosed is a surgical needle, or active cannula, that is capable of following a complex path through cavities and tissue within a patient's anatomy. The needle has a plurality of overlapping flexible tubes, each of which has a pre-formed curvature and a pre-determined flexibility. Each of the plurality of flexible tubes is selected based on their respective pre-formed curvature and flexibility so that a given overlap configuration causes the combination of overlapping flexible tubes to form a predetermined shape that substantially matches a desired path through the anatomy. By individually controlling the translation and angular orientation of each of the flexible tubes, the surgical needle may be guided through the anatomy according to the desired path.
