“…In fact, the MAGS camera had to be held off center so an appropriate view of the operative field could be obtained. It is well known that holding a camera off axis increases the psychomotor demands of a given task in a traditional multiport setting and results in a degraded task performance [25,[33][34][35][36][37]. For ex vivo testing, the experts seemed to compensate completely for this increased level of difficulty, whereas the fellows did not (Fig.…”

“…I will come from time to time and show you what I have and you will try it out.'' And so he has come with his little silver instrument case from time to time to bring me and many of my colleagues in the surgical subspecialties, and more recently also those in anesthesia, ''some new stuff to try out'' [35][36][37]. This has been to the benefit of many of my patients, most of whom have very complex conditions or have previously failed other treatment attempts.…”

Milestones in endoscope design for minimally invasive urologic surgery: the sentinel role of a pioneer

Endoscopically based techniques have revolutionized the entire field of surgical specialties over the past 50 years. Currently, minimal access surgery is commonplace for considerable segments of surgical procedures across specialty lines. Central to this revolution, and arguably foremost in its impact on the development of minimally invasive endoscopic surgery, was the development of the rod-lens optical system by Professor Harold H. Hopkins and the almost simultaneous development of the fiberoptic cold-light light source by Karl Storz. It was George Berci who acted as the catalyst in bringing these two men together in the early 1960s, and from that meeting ensued one of the most successful cooperations in the design of endoscopic equipment. Innovative surgeons quickly recognized the enormous potential of these inventions, and in this context, George Berci's work and vision provided the hallmark events leading to the clinical applications from which surgeons and their patients so greatly benefit currently. In urology, Berci's early work has been recognized as a sentinel event bringing endoscopic endoluminal surgery from the lower urinary tract (urethra, bladder, prostate) to the upper urinary tract (ureter, kidney), and eventually to extraluminal laparoendoscopic surgery. This work has been recognized by the Journal of Urology as a "milestone in urology" leading to the clinical application in the field of endoscopic surgery currently referred to as endourology. In this article, the current state-of-the-art urologic surgery for the management of stone disease, urologic tumors, and anatomic abnormalities is presented, which to a great extent has its roots in George Berci's contributions to the field of innovative endoscope design.

“…Usually they will not support DICOM SC or VL Single-or Multi-frame objects but just deliver a video signal [28][29][30][31][32][33][34], although alternatives are found for direct PC-connection [35]. SPIS are quite common for certain departments, e.g.…”

The aim of this review is to present the status of digital image acquisition and archiving outside of radiology and to describe the technical concepts and possibilities of how a "radiology" Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) can become a multi-departmental (MD-)PACS. First the principles of system integration technology are explained and illustrated by the description of a typical radiology system integration. Then four types of modality integration approaches are defined: the direct modality integration (Type-I), the integration via DICOM acquisition software (Type-II) the integration via specialised systems either with (Type-III) or without PACS connection (Type-IV). The last section is dedicated to the presentation of the PACS requirements of selected interdisciplinary modality types [Endoscopy, Ultrasound and Electrocardiography (ECG)] and clinical disciplines (Pathology, Dermatology, Ophthalmology and Cardiology), which are then compared with the technical possibilities of a MD-PACS.
