Abstract:
A cannula system and method for accessing a blood mass in the brain. The system comprises a cannula with a camera mounted on the proximal end of the cannula with a view into the cannula lumen and the surgical field below the lumen. A prism, reflector or other suitable optical element is oriented between the camera and the lumen of the cannula to afford the camera a view into the cannula while minimizing obstruction of the lumen.

Claim (Index 12):
The cannula system of  claim 8  wherein the distal-most optical surface is a distally facing surface of the prism and the prism is characterized by a viewing axis which extends through the lumen, and wherein an imaging sensor viewing axis is substantially perpendicular to the prism viewing axis.
