This paper introduces the new 3D superposed display system of endoscopic ultrasound images for endoscopic augmented surgery. This system consists of an ultrasonic endoscope and electro-magnetic measurement sensor. The superimposed system of endoscopic ultrasound images is designed to work on "3D Slicer", the multi-platform and free open source software (FOSS) for visualization and image computing. Accuracy measurement experiments show that the developed system reconstructs the shape of a phantom (1yen coin, diameter 20.01mm, thickness 1.51mm) with the accuracy of 1.2mm.
