TECHNOLOGY

The advent of digital photography, novel display technologies and image processing software presents an excellent opportunity for the development of a new type of surgical imaging system that not only provides a high-quality image but also enhancements and much needed supporting information that aids the surgical process.

Our products are based on an innovative image capture and display system that employs a proprietary stereoscopic digital camera system and processing electronics and a display screen. The system offers many advantages over the conventional systems. Consider the advantages of our 3D Digital Microsurgical Workstation System™:

  • Small, light weight and flexible in configuration.
  • Improved ergonomics in that the surgeon is not forced to look through a set of optics during the surgery. The field is viewed on a display screen that can be configured in any position that is comfortable. These features reduce surgeon fatigue.
  • Longer working distance for the surgeon.
  • Needs only 20% of the light for obtaining a high quality image thus promoting patient comfort. Retinal light toxicity is an important consideration.
  • Image will have an enhanced sense of depth.
  • Computer assisted contrast control.
  • Several image enhancement features such as contrast, zoom, edge sharpness and color filtering.
  • Eliminates annoying reflections.
  • Eliminates the need for multiple sets of optics for assistants.
