Projection of visible, non-treatment light onto an eye to illuminate specific areas of the surgical field is disclosed herein. A surgical system may include a surgical console; a microscope communicatively coupled to the surgical console; a camera communicatively coupled to the surgical console; and a projector operable to project light onto an eye. The projector may be communicatively coupled to the surgical console. A method for light projection may include collecting information from an eye using a camera; determining the light projection based, at least in part, on the collected information; and projecting visible, non-treatment light onto the eye using a projector.

A tissue specimen removal device comprises a specimen bag; a flexible ring, the flexible ring configured to form a top opening of the specimen bag; a cannula assembly comprising: an inner tube portion and an outer tube portion. The device may further comprise a connector carrier, the connector carrier configured to retain at least one connector housing, the at least one connector housing comprising one or more connector portions and reside within an interior of the connector carrier, and wherein the connector carrier can be moved from a position within the cannula assembly to outside the cannula assembly.

Disclosed are systems and methods of lymphatic specimen tracking, visualization, and lymph node drainage pathway determination. An exemplary method includes receiving computed tomographic (CT) image data corresponding to a CT scan, generating a three-dimensional (3D) model of at least a portion of a patient's body based on the CT image data, identifying one or more lymph nodes in the 3D model, performing a registration of the 3D model with one or more physical locations in the patient's body, determining an expected lymph node drainage pathway away from a region of interest through one or more lymph nodes, and displaying the 3D model and the expected lymph node drainage pathway.

Methods of bioprinting a bio-ink construct on an internal tissue defect or a chondral defect during a minimally invasive surgery on an individual in need thereof are provided, comprising: visualizing the defect; positioning a bioprinter comprising a printhead within proximity of or in contact with the defect; and ejecting a bio-ink from the printhead onto the defect to form a bio-ink layer, thereby generating a bio-ink construct. Further provided are systems for bioprinting a bio-ink construct on an internal tissue defect during a minimally invasive surgery on an individual in need thereof, comprising a control system, an endoscope, and a bioprinter comprising a printhead.

An augmented reality, AR, system (100) for use in a medical procedure is disclosed. The AR system (100) comprises an AR headset (2), and a processor (12). The AR headset (2) comprises a camera (6a, 6b), a near eye display (4a, 4b) and a depth sensor (10a, 10b). The processor (12) is configured to adjust the position of the image obtained by the camera (6a, 6b) on the display (4a, 4b) throughout the medical procedure based on changes in the distance measured by the depth sensor (10a, 10b).

A system determining a location for a surgical procedure, the system including a jig having a frame, a first marker fixed to the frame, wherein the first marker includes a scanable label, and a second marker moveably connected to the frame, such that the second marker can move positions independent of the frame, and wherein the second marker includes a scanable label. The system also includes a mixed reality headset configured to scan the scanable label of the first marker and the scanable label of the second marker, to provide location data to the mixed reality headset.

A container holds at least one surgical implement, has a lock mechanism, and has a signature label that impedes access to the surgical implement until the correct surgical site is confirmed. A method of using the container includes the steps of confirming the correct surgical site, signing the label and removing it from the container, placing the label in the medical record, unlocking the container, removing the implement, and beginning the surgery, wherein the surgical team is forced to pause to confirm the correct surgical site before starting the surgery. The system and method may also include a wrong site surgery profile used by individuals within the surgical procedure environment and third parties for tracking and determining if, and where, a wrong site surgical procedure occurred. The profile can be updated, tacked and monitored while a patient is interacting within the medical environment.

A needle guide comprising a base to which a pair of horizontal slide bars are secured, the horizontal slide bars including a channel opening running between the bars, a needle stabilizer with a central tube is slideably engaged with the pair of horizontal slide bars, wherein the needle stabilizer extends through the channel opening and has the ability to change positions along a length of the horizontal slide bar, an angular ruler is secured to the base and located proximal to the needle stabilizer to allow accurate adjustment of the angle of the externally adjustable needle guide and one or more virtual visualization bars to aid in visualization using radiography, ultrasound, or magnetic resonance (or any other medical imaging technology) to visualize the virtual visualization bars.

A device improves the outcome of bilateral eyelid, facial or other procedures, by improving the accuracy of bilateral pre surgical markings. The device may include a mirror, a camera, and a projector, where the projector projects an image captured by the camera onto a patient. Improved accuracy may be achieved using the device by projecting the mirror image of a pre-surgically marked reference eyelid or other body area onto the area of the other eyelid or contralateral body area that is similarly to be operated upon.

Systems, instruments, and methods for minimally invasive procedures including one or more of fractional resection, fractional lipectomy, fractional skin grafting, and/or fractional scar revision are described. Embodiments include instrumentation comprising a scalpet assembly coupled to a carrier, and the scalpet assembly includes a scalpet array. The scalpet array includes one or more scalpets configured for fractional resection, fractional lipectomy, fractional skin grafting, and/or fractional scar revision. The system includes a vacuum component coupled to the scalpet assembly and configured to evacuate tissue from the a site. The carrier is configured to control application of a rotational force and/or a vacuum force to the scalpet assembly.
