Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for endoscopic mapping of a target and tracking of endoscope locations inside a subject's body during a procedure are disclosed. An exemplary system comprises an imaging system configured to capture an endoscopic image of the target that includes a footprint of an aiming beam directed at the target, and a video processor configured to identifying one or more landmarks from the captured endoscopic image and determine their respective locations relative to the aiming beam footprint, and generate a target map by integrating a plurality of endoscopic images based on landmarks identified from one or more of the plurality of endoscopic images. The target map can be used to track endoscope location during an endoscopic procedure.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for automatic control of surgical site temperature during an endoscopic procedure are disclosed. An exemplary endoscopic surgical system comprises an endoscopic surgical device controllably coupled to a medical instrument to deliver energy to a surgical site during a procedure, an imaging sensor to generate images or video frames of at least a portion of the surgical site during the procedure, and a controller circuit to analyze the generated images or video frames to determine whether a degree of heat built up in a first target at the surgical site exceeds a predetermined threshold. Based on such determination, the controller circuit can determine whether to adjust at least one operating parameter associated with the endoscopic surgical system to achieve or maintain a treatment effect of a different second target at the surgical site while avoid damaging the first target during the procedure.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling and selecting sources in a room on a network. The system allows a remote viewer to create a virtual presence within the room by providing the available displays, corresponding to the sources, to the remote viewer. The system includes a standardizing technique for improving the communication and overall switching of data for streaming on a network. The system can include a recording server for performing dual recording of the video files in each of a local database and a remote database. A graphical user interface (GUI) display is provided to guide a local user through a medical procedure in the standardized system.

Abstract: A method of identifying an illumination light source in a surgical system comprises steps of receiving a signal from a target after the target is illuminated by the illumination light source, performing spectroscopic analysis of the received signal, and based at least in part on the spectroscopic analysis, determining a characteristic of the illumination light source. A method of treating a target comprises receiving a signal from the target after the target is illuminated by an illumination light source, performing spectroscopic analysis of the received signal, based at least in part on the spectroscopic analysis, determining a first characteristic of the illumination light source and a second characteristic of the target, and based at least in part on the determined characteristics of the illumination light source and the target, operating a surgical system to treat the target.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for delivering laser energy to a target in an endoscopic procedure are disclosed. An exemplary method comprises providing a first laser pulse train and a different second laser pulse train emitting from a distal end of an endoscope and incident on a target. The first laser pulse train has a first laser energy level, and the second laser pulse train has a second laser energy level higher than the first laser energy level. In an example, the first laser pulse train is used to form cracks on a surface of a calculi structure, and the second laser pulse train causes fragmentation of the calculi structure after the cracks are formed.
