AESCULAP® EinsteinVision® 3.0 FI – SEE BETTER. SEE BEYOND.

3D Fluorescence Imaging in real-time

Fluorescence Imaging (FI) aims for the best patient outcome during diagnostics or surgery. [1] In minimally invasive surgery it is used in numerous applications such as vessel or visceral perfusion assessment, visualization of bile duct anatomy or (sentinel) lymph node mapping.

The Aesculap 3D Fluorescence Imaging technology offers three different FI overlay modes in real-time

FI green – 3D Fluorescence Imaging technology

FI green

This fluorescence mode indicates the presence of ICG in green color.

FI intensity – 3D Fluorescence Imaging technology

FI intensity

The display of the ICG signal in different colors (yellow represents a high FI intensity signal) enables the visual representation of the ICG intensity in the tissue.

FI white – 3D Fluorescence Imaging technology

FI white

The monochromatic mode provides the greatest possible image contrast by displaying the white FI signal on a black background.

Pure viewing pleasure

Premium 3D

EinsteinVision® 3.0 offers exceptional 3D image quality with native Full HD resolution. In addition, the system convinces with an impressive depth of field and high image contrast.

Fluorescence-guided surgery – 3D fluorescence imaging in real-time

The FI intensity mode as one of three different FI modes displays the ICG signal in different colors for better differentiation. The fluorescence modes can be easily activated via a camera head button.

Complete perspective

Anti-fogging function

Fogged optics are bothersome, impair the view, disrupt work and can affect patient safety.
Integrated heating elements in the endoscope tip of the camera effectively and permanently prevent fogging of the optics within seconds.

Added value in imaging

Different sterile handling concept

This unique concept requires no reprocessing of the 3D camera head with endoscope and results in consistent image quality with virtually no image degradation over the life of the product. The product is always ready for use as it remains in the OR.

Always in focus

Autofocus effect

View the OR situs in sharp depth of focus without manual re-focusing.

Clarity

Smoke reduction

Electrosurgical current regularly generates disruptive smoke. Limited visibility conditions can have an influence on patient safety.
With the push of a button, a special algorithm reduces the impairment visibly.

Differentiated seeing

Red enhancement

A clearer representation of vessels and greater differentiation of red tones are also desirable.
The integrated algorithm provides precisely that at the push of a button.
