SURGICAL SYSTEM, CONTROL METHOD, AND PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240335238 titled 'SURGICAL SYSTEM, CONTROL METHOD, AND PROGRAM
The present technology pertains to a surgical system that allows for the appropriate setting of a region-of-interest for an operator. The system performs segmentation of an image captured by a camera, sets a segmentation region where each target is displayed, acquires a region-of-interest candidate, and sets the region-of-interest based on the relationship between the segmentation region and the candidate.
- Segmentation of images captured by a camera
- Setting a segmentation region for displaying targets
- Acquiring region-of-interest candidates
- Setting the region-of-interest based on the relationship between segmentation region and candidates
- Applicable to surgical systems using an endoscope
Potential Applications: - Minimally invasive surgeries - Medical imaging technologies - Robotics in healthcare
Problems Solved: - Accurate setting of region-of-interest for operators - Enhanced visualization during surgical procedures - Improved precision in targeting specific areas
Benefits: - Increased efficiency in surgical operations - Reduced risk of errors during procedures - Enhanced control and accuracy for operators
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Surgical System for Enhanced Precision in Medical Procedures This technology can be utilized in hospitals, surgical centers, and research institutions to improve the accuracy and efficiency of various medical procedures. It can also be integrated into robotic surgical systems for enhanced control and precision.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve the accuracy of surgical procedures? 2. What are the potential cost-saving benefits of implementing this system in healthcare facilities?
Original Abstract Submitted
the present technology relates to a surgical system, a control method, and a program that enable a region-of-interest of an operator to be appropriately set. the surgical system according to one aspect of the present technology performs segmentation of an image captured by a camera and sets a segmentation region in which each target is displayed, acquires a region-of-interest candidate that is a region to be a candidate for a region-of-interest of an operator, and sets the region-of-interest on the basis of a relationship between the segmentation region and the region-of-interest candidate. the present technology can be applied to a surgical system using an endoscope.
