    摘要: A system for training surgical camera navigation skills is provided. A plurality of two-dimensional targets is on an upper surface of a flat sheet. The sheet is easily transportable and placed onto a base of a trainer that defines a simulated abdominal cavity between the base and a top. A scope is inserted through a port in the top and the targets are viewed on a live video feed displayed on a screen. A trainee can move the scope back and forth, roll and angulate the scope about the port to view the targets on the sheet at different angles and distances. The trainee is instructed to follow a sequence of targets marked on the sheet and manipulate the scope to align consecutively each target with the edges of the screen in the sequence provided.

    摘要: An endoscope includes a distal end surface having two surface sections that include an obtuse angle therebetween, wherein one surface section is oriented in an inclined manner relative to the longitudinal direction and the other surface section is transverse to the longitudinal direction. An image capturing device includes an objective lens having a light entrance window which is arranged in a flush mounted manner relative to the surface section. The image capturing device is arranged inside a cylindrical longitudinally oriented contour and has a viewing direction oriented obliquely to the longitudinal direction. The objective lens includes an optical axis having at least one bend, so that it includes a longitudinally oriented section and an obliquely oriented outer section. An illumination device is longitudinally oriented and includes an emission angle that is larger than an acceptance angle of the objective lens of the image capturing device.

    摘要: An information processing apparatus including at least one processor, wherein the processor is configured to: use at least one of a real image, which represents an interior wall of a tubular structure, or a first depth image, which represents a distance for each pixel from a viewpoint of the real image to the interior wall, and at least one of a virtual image, which represents, in a pseudo manner, the interior wall as viewed from a virtual viewpoint predetermined in a three-dimensional image, or a second depth image, which represents a distance for each pixel from the virtual viewpoint to the interior wall, to perform viewpoint difference estimation processing of estimating a viewpoint difference between the viewpoint of the real image and the virtual viewpoint; and use at least one of the first depth image or the second depth image in the viewpoint difference estimation processing.
