Classification: CPC A  G | IPC A  G

Claim 14:
15. A surgical visualization system, comprising:
a display;
a first source configured to emit a plurality of spectral light waves configured to penetrate an organ;
a second source configured to emit a structured light pattern onto a surface of the organ;
an image sensor configured to detect at least one of the plurality of spectral light waves that are reflected or the structured light pattern that is reflected; and
a control system in signal communication with the first source, the second source, the image sensor, and the display, wherein the control system comprises a processor and a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, wherein the memory stores instructions executable by the processor to:
receive pre-operative imaging data associated with the organ;
receive first intraoperative imaging data indicative of the structured light pattern on the surface of the organ;
generate a three-dimensional digital representation of the organ based on the pre-operative imaging data and the first intraoperative imaging data;
display the three-dimensional digital representation of the organ on the display;
receive second intraoperative imaging data indicative of the plurality of spectral light waves penetrating the organ;
intraoperatively identify a hidden structure beneath the surface of the organ based on the second intraoperative imaging data;
generate a three-dimensional digital representation of the hidden structure beneath the surface of the organ; and
overlay the three-dimensional digital representation of the hidden structure with the three-dimensional digital representation of the organ on the display.
