Definitions

  • Surgical robotic systems are currently being used in a variety of surgical procedures, including minimally invasive surgical procedures.
  • Some surgical robotic systems include a surgeon console controlling a surgical robotic arm and a surgical instrument having an end effector (e.g., forceps or grasping instrument) coupled to and actuated by the robotic arm.
  • the robotic arm In operation, the robotic arm is moved to a position over a patient and then guides the surgical instrument into a small incision via a surgical port or a natural orifice of a patient to position the end effector at a work site within the patient’s body.
  • a laparoscopic camera which is also held by one of the robotic arms, is inserted into the patient to image the surgical site.
  • the laparoscopic camera may operate in a variety of imaging modes including conventional color, or white light, mode and fluorescence mode.
  • conventional white light mode light in the visible spectral range is used to illuminate the tissue surface under observation.
  • Light reflected by the tissue passes through a suitable lens system and is incident on an image sensor built into or attached to the endoscope.
  • the electrical signals from the image sensor are processed into a full color video image which can be displayed on a video monitor or stored in a memory.
  • fluorescence excitation light excites fluorophores in the tissue, which emit fluorescence light at an emission wavelength, which is typically greater than the excitation wavelength. Fluorescence light from the tissue passes through a suitable lens system and is incident on the image sensor. The electrical signals from the image sensor are processed into a fluorescence video image which can be displayed on a video monitor, either separately or combined with the color video image.
  • the fluorescence excitation and emission wavelengths depend upon the type of fluorophores being excited.
  • the band of excitation wavelengths may be located anywhere in the range from the ultraviolet (UV) to the near infra-red (NIR) and the emission wavelength band anywhere from the visible to the NIR.
  • UV ultraviolet
  • NIR near infra-red
  • the band of excitation and emission wavelengths are more limited (excitation from the UV to the green part of the visible spectrum, emission from the blue/green light to the NIR).
  • Fluorescence imaging may be used to identify blood vessels, cancer cells, and other tissue types. White light and fluorescence imaging modes may be combined in a variety of ways.

  • overlay mode the imaging system may be configured to display the NIR image using visible light depending on user preferences and application, e.g., the NIR/ICG data can be displayed as a green or blue overlay.
  • intensity map mode the imaging system displays the intensity of the NIR/ICG signal using a color scale in an overlay image.
  • a monochromatic mode the NIR/ICG signal alone is displayed in white on a black background to achieve the greatest possible differentiation.
  • the surgical robotic system in combination with the imaging systems allows for visualization of the instruments during monochromatic imaging mode. Since the instruments are not fluorescent, the instrument visualization is provided by a machine leaming/artificial intelligence (ML/AI) algorithm, which runs in the background and detects the instruments from the white light imaging data. In one embodiment an overlay of the instruments or a representation of the instruments is overlaid onto the images from the monochromatic imaging mode. In another embodiment, the algorithm is able to track robotic arms and instrument control information while in the white light imaging mode and continues to update the instruments overlay given robotic arms and instruments/end- effectors updated using kinematic data when imaging system switches to monochromatic imaging mode to provide a better frame of reference of instrument location.
