Area of Science:

  • Surgical Technology
  • Medical Imaging
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • The fundamental design of the operating microscope has seen little change since its inception in 1921.
  • Current microsurgical procedures rely on direct visualization through binocular eyepieces.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the feasibility of performing microsurgery using video technology and a television monitor.
  • To discuss the development and early trials of the videomicroscope.

Main Methods:

  • Review of the development of videomicroscope technology.
  • Analysis of early trials involving simple microsurgical procedures.

Main Results:

  • Video technology demonstrates potential for performing simple microsurgical procedures.
