Olympus Releases Visera III Surgical Visualization Platform

Olympus has launched Visera Elite III, its newest surgical visualization platform for endoscopic procedures across multiple disciplines.
 
It offers imaging functions to support minimally invasive therapies like laparoscopic colectomy and cholecystectomy. Future software upgrades will advance the tech and enable individual configurations.
 
“With VISERA ELITE III, we provide a best-in-class surgical visualization platform designed for multiple medical specialties and configurations, allowing HCPs to fully focus on the patient during surgery. By incorporating the technologies of its predecessors VISERA ELITE II and VISERA 4K UHD into one platform, VISERA ELITE III enhances the quality of endoscopic surgery, contributes to improved efficiency in the operating room, and hereby elevates the standard of care,” Kanichi Matsumoto, Global Head of Surgical Endoscopy at Olympus told the press.
 
The system uses 3D and infrared imaging functions as well as 4K. It also supports fluorescence-guided surgery and NBI (narrow band imaging). Customized departmental profiles can also be set up for general surgery, urology, gynecology, and ENT surgery.

 
A focus adjust mode during 4K surgical observation is equipped with extended depth of field for precise endoscopic observations via continuous broad focus and magnification. Continuous auto focus automatically adjusts focus related to movement of the camera head and endoscope to facilitate clearer image capture.
