From Now on Operating Microscope

The Dental Operating Microscope

Endodontic therapy is performed in a naturally dark and confined working space. Operating microscopes were introduced into Endodontics in the early 1990s, and then into endodontic specialty programs in the United States. Since then, operating microscopes have become widely accepted by endodontists and are also increasingly being used by other specialists. The American Association of Endodontist...

Endodontic Therapy: the Operating Microscope

a variety of configurations and magnifications. With the aid of a fiberoptic headlamp system, light can be projected in the line of sight to prevent the creation of shadows in the surgical field and render optimal visualization of the treatment site. However, the magnification of loupes is limited (2.5 to 6.0 ) and their optics are convergent, which creates eye strain and fatigue. In order to a...

Mixed Reality System for Neurosurgery based on Operating Microscope

The aim of this project is to provide a Mixed (Augmented and Virtual) Reality platform, both educational, preand intraoperative purposes. The architecture is based on a prototype of a stereoscopic Augmented Reality (AR) microscope for ergonomic intra-operative presentation of complex preoperative three-dimensional structure (obtained by real patient’s images) for neurosurgical interventions rea...
