Hivision-Computer Aided Surgery system and Virtual Hospital

Abstract

We are now developing a Hivision-computer aided minimally invasive surgery system based on HDTV technology. Until now, for reduction of surgical intervension and surgical procedures, doctors operate acording to his images obtained by presurgical measured data. Hivion CAS is able to support these procedures with HDTV reference pictures such as CT images. In the sence of Virtual Hospital, doctors can discuss each other via network about the simulation and navigation in an operating theater. Thus they can chose the best surgical procedure by interactive diagnosis through medical images.
