OBJECTIVE OF THE TECHNOLOGY
Senior surgeons guide residents in laparoscopic procedures by pointing at anatomy on the display or inside the body with available tools1. The frequency of this form of target identification and target fixation is significantly higher than instrument guidance2.
DESCRIPTION OF TECHNOLOGY
We developed a Kinect-based image annotation system for surgeons to provide reference and annotation as an overlay to the real-time endoscopic video. This is on a secondary display
OBJECTIVE OF TECHNOLOGY:
Fluorescent Imaging Technology (FIT) is an emerging modality that allows for intraoperative fluorescent imaging. FIT uses intravenous indocyanine green (ICG) dye and a near-infrared light source to detect intraoperative changes in tissue. In the past few years, fluorescent image-guided surgery has seen increased use in oncologic and general surgery, however few instances of its use in bariatric surgery has been described.

In two years period ( 2013 – 2015 ) 22 patients with type II diabetes were operated on. 13 of them were male and 9 of them were female.Mean age was 40,9 ( between 30 – 65 years of age )BMI was lower than 30 kg/m 2? in the non obese 9 patients.Other 13 patient’s BMI were between 35 kg/ m 2 -? 42 kg/m 2? .?? For this procedure patients were selected based on some criteria ( DRS- Diabetes remission score ) such as age, duration of diabetes ,use of insulin ,BMI , micro and macrovasculer complica
To introduce a series of dry lab models simulating the pancreatojejunostomy(PJ) for da vinci robotic surgery. 3 types of dry lab models were designed and applied for the training for surgeon for the pancreatic reconstruction surgery under da vinci surgical robot, ie. model 1#, for the anastomosis of the commercially available pancreatic duct stent made of silicon gal ;model 2#, the pancreatic duct stent was inserted into a silicon gal model from Ethicon Company as to simulate the PJ of duct to m
The timing of the onset of dysphagia post Roux-en-Y gastric bypass usually helps determine the cause and therefore the treatment of the dysphagia. Dysphagia arising immediately after the procedure is usually due to edema and resolves spontaneously. When it begins 1-3 days after surgery, a mechanical reason should be suspected and treated. When the patient takes fluids for a week, is advanced to a soft diet but then develops dysphagia, the most common cause is stenosis. The dysphagia is diagnosed
