By using this method, a surgeon can execute an entire surgical operation through an endoscope in conjunction with an ultrasonic technology.

In an augmented reality field within a real time environment we developed a method that enables images from the endoscope to follow the camera movement on the CT scanned 3D images.

And we're entering an era of really, truly scarless surgery called NOTES, where the robotic endoscope can come out the stomach and pull out that gallbladder all in a scarless way and robotically.
