An ophthalmic surgical system comprises: a camera optically coupled to a surgical microscope; a virtual reality (VR) headset worn by a surgeon; and a VR data processing unit configured to communicate with the surgical microscope, the VR headset, and an ophthalmic surgical apparatus, wherein the VR data processing unit is configured to: project a real time video screen of video received from the camera into the VR headset; project a patient information screen into the VR headset to provide the patient information directly to the surgeon during ophthalmic surgery; project a surgical apparatus information screen into the VR headset; project a surgical apparatus input control screen into the VR headset to provide the surgeon with direct control over the surgical apparatus; and control which ones of the screens are visible in the VR headset based inputs indicating head movements of the surgeon as detected by the VR headset.

A method for determining a scan region to be imaged by a medical image acquisition device is disclosed. The method is performed by at least one processor and comprises obtaining, for each of at least one surgical device, information indicative of one or more poses thereof. The method further includes selecting, based on the one or more poses, at least one anatomical element of a patient's body. The method further includes determining, based on the selected at least one anatomical element, a scan region to be imaged by a medical image acquisition device. An apparatus, a system and a computer program product are also disclosed.

Embodiments of the invention relate to an ancillary surgical instrument including at least a first contact point to come into contact with a first reference point of an operating area; a second contact point intended to come into contact with a second reference point of the operating area; a contact area intended to come into contact with a third reference point of the operating area; a determination unit for determining an orientation reference of the ancillary instrument in a Galilean orientation reference; and a communication unit for communication the determined orientation reference.

A method of registering sets of anatomical data for use during a medical procedure is provided herein. The method may include accessing a first set of model points of a patient anatomy of interest and intra-operatively acquiring a second set of model points by visualizing a portion of the anatomical surface in the patient with a vision probe. The method may further include extracting system information, including kinematic information from a robotic arm of a medical system and/or setup information, and generating an initial seed transformation based on the extracted system information. Thereafter, the method may include applying the initial seed transformation to the first set of model points and generating a first registration between the first set of model points and the second set of model points to permit model and actual information to be viewed and used together by an operator.

A system and method to analyze image data. The image data may be used to assist in determine the presence of a feature in the image. The feature may include a bubble.

A plurality of three-dimensional fixator graphical representations may include graphical indications of a strut swap range. A plurality of replaced strut graphical representations may change from a first rendering state in a swap start fixator graphical representation to a second rendering state in a swap end fixator graphical representation. A plurality of replacement graphical representations may change from the second rendering state in the swap start fixator graphical representation to the first rendering state in the swap end fixator graphical representation. In some examples, the plurality of replaced strut graphical representations may gradually fade out from a swap start stage to a swap end stage, and the plurality of replacement strut graphical representations may gradually fade in from a swap start stage to a swap end stage. Additionally, a treatment plan including at least one interfamily strut swap may be generated for manipulating a fixator to correct a deformity.

Various methods and systems are provided for medical imaging. In one embodiment, a method for a C-arm imaging system, comprises during an interventional procedure involving a medical device inserted within a segment of interest (SOI), angulating a C-arm of the C-arm imaging device based on a geometry of the SOI and a location of an extremity of the medical device.

[Object] To realize a movable mechanism capable of being configured more compactly and also capable of ensuring higher safety. [Solution] Provided is a motor. An electrically active part is provided with an insulating structure so that insulating properties between the electrically active part and one or more conductors near the electrically active part satisfy a certain safety standard regarding medical electrical equipment.

An apparatus includes a catheter shaft assembly and an end effector. The end effector includes a first flex circuit assembly, which includes a base member extending distally from the distal end of the catheter shaft assembly. The first flex circuit assembly further includes a plurality of obliquely extending members extending obliquely from the base member. The obliquely extending members are configured to transition between a first configuration and a second configuration. The obliquely extending members are configured to fit within an outer sheath in the first configuration. The obliquely extending members are configured to expand outwardly away from the longitudinal axis in the second configuration when exposed distally relative to the distal end of the outer sheath. The first flex circuit assembly further includes a plurality of electrodes positioned on at least some of the obliquely extending members, the electrodes being positioned to contact tissue or blood.

Disclosed herein are devices, systems, and method for multi-stage, reusable coupling. Such a coupler can have a formable flow path and can include a first sealing engagement and a second sealing engagement. The first sealing engagement can be configured to provide a first seal of the coupler at a first temperature condition. The second sealing engagement can be configured to provide a second seal of the coupler at a second temperature condition that is different from the first temperature condition.
