Patent ID: 8508230

Claim:
A microscope apparatus ( 100 ) comprising an operating microscope ( 20 ), a magnetic resonance or MR apparatus ( 30 ), a stand ( 10 ) that carries the operating microscope ( 20 ) and the MR apparatus ( 30 ), at least one detector ( 14 ) for determining the spatial position of the MR apparatus ( 30 ) relative to the operating microscope ( 20 ), a reflecting device ( 23 ) for reflecting an image obtained using the MR apparatus ( 30 ) into at least one observation beam path of the operating microscope ( 20 ), a computer unit ( 40 ) which is connected to the at least one detector ( 14 ) and is arranged so as to determine the spatial position of the MR apparatus ( 20 ) relative to the operating microscope ( 30 ), the computer unit ( 40 ) being connected to the reflecting device ( 23 ) and to the MR apparatus ( 30 ) and being arranged so as to provide the image that is to be reflected in for the reflecting device ( 23 ) on the basis of the spatial position determined for the MR apparatus ( 30 ) relative to the operating microscope ( 20 ).
