During minimally invasive surgery, the surgeon will be able to conduct the procedure via the normal 2D screen on an endoscope. But images of the site will be simultaneously available on the 3D screen, which should give the surgeon a more accurate grasp of the relative positions when suturing or cutting. This new technique is expected to significantly enhance the quality and efficiency of current 2D endoscopic technology.
如此一來，當外科醫師在進行微創手術時，不僅可透過原有的內視鏡 2D 螢幕進行手術操作，也能經由 3D 螢幕同步獲得手術部位的立體影像，這樣就可以更精確地掌握縫合或切割時相對位置的空間感，此種新技術將可望大幅提升現有 2D 內視鏡手術的品質與效率。
