MAGNIFIED HIGH RESOLUTION IMAGING AND TRACKING FOR MEDICAL USE

Abstract:

Imaging systems and methods are provided, which implement wide field imaging of a region for medical procedures and provide tracking of tools and tissues in the whole region while providing digitally magnified images of a portion of the captured region. Optical tracking may be implemented by stereoscopic imaging, and various elements may be optically tracked such as various markers and fiducials, as well as certain shapes and objects which are optically identifiable by image processing.
