Abstract
We have been developing data fusion system for open surgery and laparoscopic surgery. The system projects 3D reconstructed image of patient's organs in the surgical field and enable to observe the internal structure of the organs. We applied the system to robotics surgery system “da Vinci”. In order to superimpose 3D reconstructed images of the organs to laparoscope's view in real-time, we used optical location sensor and digital video processing system. Using this system, the surgeon is able to observe inner conditions of organs with stereoscopic view.
