ABSTRACT:
A video camera is positioned stereotactically to view a surgical opening in a patient and provide data related to stereotactic space and is stereotactically representative of a current actual view, which data is processed and displayed as a current actual image along with a reference image that is computer generated from graphics image data stored on the patient. The two images appear in a display variously, for ease of comparison and are coordinated by stereotactically tracking the camera to maintain position and orientation. A composite camera structure incorporates a surgical microscope and stereoscopic viewing along with light tracking coordination. Displays included side-by-side and overlapped.
