Motorization of a surgical microscope for intra‐operative navigation and intuitive control

Abstract: The robotic system assists the surgeon, so that he can position the microscope precisely and repeatedly without interrupting the clinical workflow. The combination of manual und automatic control guarantees fast and flexible positioning during surgical procedures.

“…An assistive handheld instrument is presented for micropositioning for intraocular laser surgery [13], but it is large to be used in minimally invasive surgery and not intended for a few minutes long manipulation typical for a scan. The motorized surgical microscope presented in [14] enables the surgeon to control the movement of the microscope by index finger movements with a remote controller. Although, this is a semiautomated system, it would be tedious for a surgeon to make the probe follow a proper scan path by finger movements.…”
