Embodiment Construction

[0034] figure 1 A medical robotic system 100 that provides three-dimensional telematics is illustrated as an example. In this example, a surgical surgeon (S) is performing a minimally invasive surgical procedure on a patient (P), and during the surgical procedure a supervising surgeon (M) directs or advises the surgical surgeon (S), who is Specialists or at least more experienced in minimally invasive surgical procedures. One or more assistants (A) located at the patient's (P) location may also assist the operating surgeon (S) during the surgical procedure.

[0035] The system 100 includes a surgeon master control station 151 (also referred to herein as the "surgeon console") operable by the operating surgeon (S), a slave cart 120 with three slave robotic mechanisms 121-123, and a Instructor master control station 131 (herein also referred to as "instructor console") that directs the operation of the surgeon (M). The instructor master station 131 is shown separated from the...

Abstract

A medical robotic system provides 3D telestration over a 3D view of an anatomical structure by receiving a 2D telestration graphic input associated with one of a pair of stereoscopic images of the anatomical structure from a mentor surgeon, determining a corresponding 2D telestration graphic input in the other of the pair of stereoscopic images using a disparity map, blending the telestration graphic inputs into respective ones of the pair of stereoscopic images, and providing the blended results to a 3D display so that a 3D view of the telestration graphic input may be displayed as an overlay to a 3D view of the anatomical structure to an operating surgeon.

Description

[0001] Statement Regarding Research or Development Sponsored by the U.S. Federal Government [0002] This invention was made with US Government support under Contract No. 1 R41 EB004177-01 awarded by the National Institutes of Health. The government has certain rights in this invention. technical field [0003] The present invention relates generally to minimally invasive robotic surgery systems, and more particularly to a medical robotic system providing three-dimensional telestration. Background technique [0004] Minimally invasive surgical approaches such as laparoscopy and thoracoscopic surgery can significantly reduce morbidity, reduce pain, improve recovery time, and lead to greater patient satisfaction. However, surgeons performing conventional laparoscopic and thoracoscopic procedures face a steep learning curve and must contend with their severely diminished ability to see and feel the surgical field, as well as their significant loss of proficiency compared to op...
