Abstract

A method for generating and updating a three-dimensional representation of a surgical site based on imaging data from an imaging system is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of generating a first image of the surgical site based on structured electromagnetic radiation emitted from the imaging system, receiving a second image of the surgical site, aligning the first image and the second image, generating a three-dimensional representation of the surgical site based on the first image and the second image as aligned, displaying the three-dimensional representation on a display screen, receiving a user selection to manipulate the three-dimensional representation, and updating the three-dimensional representation as displayed on the display screen from a first state to a second state according to the received user selection.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A surgical hub for use with a surgical system in a surgical procedure performed in an operating room, the surgical hub comprising:
a control circuit configured to:
receive real-time visualization data from a camera;
determine an estimated parameter change based on the visualization data and surgical procedure;
receive pre-operative non-visualization data, wherein the pre-operative non-visualization data is received before the surgical procedure is performed;
determine a tissue parameter based on the real-time visualization data;
adjust an operational parameter of a surgical device used to perform the surgical procedure based on the tissue parameter, wherein the surgical device is communicably coupled to the surgical hub;
receive post-operative non-visualization data, wherein the post-operative non-visualization data is received after the surgical procedure is performed;
determine a difference between the pre-operative non-visualization data and the post-operative non-visualization data; and
assess an output of the surgical procedure based on a comparison of the difference and the estimated parameter change,
wherein the pre-operative non-visualization data comprises pre-operative partial pressure of carbon dioxide of a patient, and the post-operative non-visualization data comprises post-operative partial pressure of carbon dioxide of the patient,
wherein the difference comprises a difference between the pre-operative partial pressure of carbon dioxide and the post-operative partial pressure of carbon dioxide,
wherein assessing the output of the surgical procedure based on the comparison of the difference and the estimated parameter change comprises comparing the comparison of the difference between the pre-operative partial pressure of carbon dioxide and the post-operative partial pressure of carbon dioxide with the estimated parameter change.

2. The surgical hub of claim 1 , wherein the control circuit is further configured to provide recommendations for the surgical procedure based on the pre-operative non-visualization data and the real-time visualization data.

3. The surgical hub of claim 1 , wherein the control circuit is further configured to:
receive surgical procedure parameters from a user; and
provide recommendations for the surgical procedure based on the surgical procedure parameters and the real-time visualization data.

4. The surgical hub of claim 1 , wherein the pre-operative non-visualization data and the post-operative non-visualization data are received from another surgical device coupled to the surgical hub.

5. The surgical hub of claim 1 , wherein the control circuit is further configured to:
receive pre-operative visualization scans simulating a surgical approach; and
display the pre-operative visualization scans against the real-time visualization data during the surgical procedure.

6. The surgical hub of claim 1 , wherein the surgical procedure comprises an organ being resected.

7. The surgical hub of claim 1 , wherein the tissue parameter comprises tissue density.

8. A surgical hub for use with a surgical system in a surgical procedure performed in an operating room, the surgical hub comprising:
a control circuit configured to:
receive real-time visualization data from a camera;
determine an estimated parameter change based on the visualization data and surgical procedure;
receive pre-operative data, wherein the pre-operative data is received before the surgical procedure is performed;
determine a tissue parameter based on the real-time visualization data;
adjust an operational parameter of a surgical device used to perform the surgical procedure based on the tissue parameter, wherein the surgical device is communicably coupled to the surgical hub;
receive post-operative data, wherein the post-operative data is received after the surgical procedure is performed;
determine a difference between the pre-operative data and post-operative data; and
assess an output of the surgical procedure based on the difference and the estimated parameter change,
wherein the pre-operative data comprises pre-operative partial pressure of carbon dioxide of a patient, and the post-operative data comprises post-operative partial pressure of carbon dioxide of the patient,
wherein the difference comprises a difference between the pre-operative partial pressure of carbon dioxide and the post-operative partial pressure of carbon dioxide,
wherein assessing the output of the surgical procedure based on the difference and the estimated parameter change comprises comparing the difference between the pre-operative partial pressure of carbon dioxide and the post-operative partial pressure of carbon dioxide with the estimated parameter change.

9. The surgical hub of claim 8 , wherein the control circuit is further configured to provide recommendations for the surgical procedure based on the pre-operative data and the real-time visualization data.

10. The surgical hub of claim 9 , wherein the pre-operative data comprises visualization data and non-visualization data.

11. The surgical hub of claim 8 , wherein the control circuit is further configured to:
receive surgical procedure parameters from a user; and
provide recommendations for the surgical procedure based on the surgical procedure parameters and the real-time visualization data.

12. The surgical hub of claim 8 , wherein the pre-operative data and the post-operative data are received from another surgical device coupled to the surgical hub.

13. The surgical hub of claim 8 , wherein the pre-operative data comprises pre-operative visualization scans simulating a surgical approach, and wherein the control circuit is further configured to display the pre-operative visualization scans against the real-time visualization data during the surgical procedure.

14. The surgical hub of claim 8 , wherein the surgical procedure comprises an organ being resected.

15. The surgical hub of claim 14 , wherein assess an output comprises determining an efficiency of the organ.

16. A surgical hub for use with a surgical system in a surgical procedure performed in an operating room, the surgical hub comprising:
a control circuit configured to:
receive real-time visualization data from a camera;
determine an estimated parameter change based on the visualization data and surgical procedure;
receive pre-operative non-visualization data from a surgical device, wherein the pre-operative non-visualization data is received before the surgical procedure is performed;
determine a first value of a non-visualization parameter based on the pre-operative non-visualization data;
determine a tissue parameter based on the real-time visualization data;
adjust an operational parameter of a surgical device used to perform the surgical procedure based on the tissue parameter, wherein the surgical device is communicably coupled to the surgical hub;
receive post-operative non-visualization data from the surgical device, wherein the post-operative non-visualization data is received after the surgical procedure is performed;
determine a second value of the non-visualization parameter based on the post-operative non-visualization data; and
assess an output of the surgical procedure based on at least the estimated parameter change, the first value, and the second value,
wherein the first value of the non-visualization parameter comprises a pre-operative partial pressure value of carbon dioxide of a patient, and the second value of the non-visualization parameter comprises a post-operative partial pressure value of
