Medical software tools platforms utilize a surgical display to provide access to specific medical software tools, such as medically-oriented applications or widgets, that can assist surgeons or surgical team in performing various procedures. In particular, an endoscopic camera may register the momentary rise in the optical signature reflected from a tissue surface and in turn transmit it to a medical image processing system which can also receive patient heart rate data and display relevant anomalies. Changes in various spectral components and the speed at which they change in relation to a source of stimulus (heartbeat, breathing, light source modulation, etc.) may indicate the arrival of blood, contrast agents or oxygen absorption. Combinations of these may indicate various states of differing disease or margins of tumors, and so forth. Also, changes in temperatures, physical dimensions, pressures, photoacoustic pressures and the rate of change may indicate tissue anomalies in comparison to historic values.

The present disclosure relates to a medical observation system, an image processing method, and a program capable of providing image display more helpful for a surgeon. A correction processing unit performs correction processing on a wide-angle image which is a captured image of a medical treatment target, a clipping processing unit moves a clipping area for a display image clipped from the wide-angle image, and a correction control unit controls the correction processing according to a relative state of the clipping area to the wide-angle image. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, an endoscopic surgery system.

An imaging device for producing images of a scene, the imaging device comprising: a first and a second hyperchromatic lens being arranged in a stereoscopic configuration to receive light from the scene; image sensor circuitry configured to capture a first and second image of the light encountered by the first and the second lens respectively; processor circuitry configured to: produce depth information using the captured first and second images of the scene and produce a resultant first and second image of the scene using both the captured first and second image and the depth information.

Systems and methods for controlling an irrigation flow rate during a lithotripsy procedure are provided. The system includes a laser configured for lithotripsy procedure, a lithotripsy irrigation system, and a temperature sensor configured to provide input to enable control of a flow of the lithotripsy irrigation system in response to a change in temperature from the operation of the laser.

An image processing apparatus includes a first acquisition unit that acquires a first pixel signal output from a first pixel, a second acquisition unit that acquires a second pixel signal output from a second pixel having a size smaller than that of the first pixel, a temperature detection unit that detects temperature; a composition gain determination unit that determines a composition gain corresponding to the detected temperature, and a composition unit that composes the first pixel signal and the second pixel signal multiplied by the composition gain.

A method for performing a surgical procedure includes generating, by a computing device, an anatomical map of a patient from a plurality of images; positioning a trocar obturator adjacent to the patient; calculating, by the computing device, a projected path of the trocar obturator; overlaying, by the computing device, the projected path of the trocar obturator with the anatomical map of the patient; and displaying the projected path of the trocar obturator and the anatomical map of the patient on a display device to define an augmented image.

An image acquisition unit sequentially acquires a medical image. A recognition processing unit applies a recognition process to the medical image. A recognition result display determination unit determines to display or not display the result of the recognition process on a display according to blur in the medical image. A display control unit controls the display of the recognition process according to the determination by the recognition result display determination unit.

The present invention relates to a fully integrated sterilizable one time use disposable tissue visualization device and methods for using such devices. Preferred embodiments of the invention facilitate the visualization of an internal tissue site while causing a minimum of damage to the surrounding tissue. Further preferred embodiments may allow for the delivery of fluids and other treatment to an internal tissue site.

A system for displaying medical imaging data comprising one or more data inputs, one or more processors, and one or more displays, wherein the one or more data inputs are configured for receiving first image data generated by a first medical imaging device, wherein the first image data comprises a field of view (FOV) portion and a non-FOV portion, and the one or more processors are configured for identifying the non-FOV portion of the first image data and generating cropped first image data by removing at least a portion of the non-FOV portion of the first image data, and transmitting the cropped first image data for display in a first portion of the display and additional information for display in a second portion of the display.

A signal processing device includes a processor including at least one or more pieces of hardware. The processor is configured to: when a first synchronization signal from a first synchronization signal generation circuit, the first synchronization signal generation circuit receiving a first clock signal and outputting the first synchronization signal, and a second synchronization signal output from a second synchronization signal generation circuit are not synchronized, reset the first synchronization signal generation circuit, and in a period in which the first synchronization signal generation circuit is reset, set a frequency of the first clock signal to be higher than a frequency in another period.
