Outline
Background/Need
VATS: Video
Assisted
Thoracoscopic
Surgery
Use of trocars at
incisions to guide
instruments
Torqueing of
trocar abrades
intercostal nerves
Project Scope
Develop a novel camera system that redresses
the challenges of current thoracoscopic
surgery solutions while retaining the
advantages of VATS.
System will be able to:
illuminate the thoracic cavity
provide access to views of the lungs and hilum
reduce or eliminating trocar traction
Details
Safety
Autoclavable
134C
Operating range
5-40 C
Ease of Use
Extended periods of use
>6 hours
<150 g
Thoracoscope Features
Light Source
60 W LED

Diameter
Movement
Rejected Solutions
Non-optical imaging
modalities
possible techniques
include ultrasound, x-rays,
and CT-scans
Exposure to radiation
Poor resolution/depth
No real-time monitoring
Swivel mirror
Allows backwards-facing
views
Simple
Prone to blood splatter
Microbots
Remotely Controlled
Minimally Invasive
Impractical/unfeasible
Design Criteria
Safety
Electrically/thermally
insulated
No sharp edges
Resist effects of nearby
electrocautery
Maintenance
Difficulty in cleaning
(autoclavable or not)
Durability
Postoperative Comfort
Minimize surgical need for
torqueing trocar
Adaptability
Easy to learn
Applicable to most cases of
thoracic surgery
Field of View
Visibility of thoracic cavity
(wider angle, flexible,
multiple cameras)
Lens Cleaning
Ability to resist blood spatter
Ease of cleaning
Self-cleaning valued over
manually cleaning

Lens Design
Eyelid Shield - dome shaped shield with wiper
Anti-fogging solution - biocompatible
surfactant that reduces condensation
Micro Wipers - small wipers for flat lens
surface
Removable Shield Layers - absorbable shield
that can shed layers when occluded

Other Considerations
Light Source
Use of LED rather than xenon bulb
Multiple lights reduces risk of obstruction
Control Methods
Manual control over arm inflation
Lighting
Voice control beyond scope
Final Design
Wall-contour system
Utilizes inflatable arms
Self-clearing lenses
Integrated LED lighting
Manual control of system
