Surgery system for the next generation of Japan.

Sony jointly developed with (urology) Kihara professor of Tokyoikashikadai, a surgical system that reflects at the same time to display multiple doctors were worn on the head, endoscopic three-dimensional (3D) images.
It is likely to be attracting attention as the next generation of surgical system from Japan.
Take advantage of the commercial display of home for View 3D movie. Were included from one hole of 2-4 cm, which opened in the stomach Kihara professor devised, is carried out by pledged surgical instruments and endoscopes to "Minimum wound endoscopic surgery". By tactile I did not know the image of traditional "depth", it is now able to ensure operation of the organization and blood vessels, which is located deep in the body and more secure.
Physician operating assistant and the surgeon, an endoscope is equipped with a display, respectively, to perform surgery while watching the video. Unlike endoscopic surgery usually is performed while watching the video monitor of a large one, it is not necessary to continue for the face. Under side of the display is widely available, I can see the state of the patient and the operating table at hand. It seems possible to ensure surgery safer and more.


内視鏡による３次元（３Ｄ）映像を、複数の医師が頭部に装着したディスプレーに同時に映し出す手術システムを、東京医科歯科大の木原教授（泌尿器科）とソニーが共同開発した。
　日本発の次世代の手術システムとして注目されそうだ。
　３Ｄ映画を見る自宅用の市販ディスプレーを活用。木原教授が考案したおなかに開けた２～４センチの一つの穴から、内視鏡や手術器具を差し入れて行う「ミニマム創内視鏡下手術」に組み入れた。従来の映像ではわからなかった「深さ」が立体的に見えることで、体の深い場所にある血管や組織の手術もより安全で確実に行えるようになった。
　執刀医や助手、内視鏡を操作する医師がそれぞれディスプレーを装着して、映像を見ながら手術を行う。一つの大きなモニターの映像を見ながら行う通常の内視鏡手術と違い、顔を向け続ける必要がない。ディスプレーの下側は広く空いており、手元や手術台の患者の様子を確認できる。手術がより安全に、そして確実に行えそうですね。
