We present a photogrammetric endoscope to measure three dimensional (3D) shapes of inner cylindrical surfaces by fringe projection. The basic configuration includes two identical cameras aligned with the optical axis and facing each other, conical lenses, and a 360 degrees helical fringe projector. The helical fringe pattern is phase shifted and acquired by both cameras. The phase patterns are used to acquire data from the surface in a regular cylindrical mesh. A prototype was built, calibrated, and tested. We present the results and an application to inspect internal welding seams and misalignment of welded joints in 150 mm (6 in.) diameter pipelines.

Introduction: In an effort to maximize benefit and minimize morbidity when performing fronto-orbital distraction osteogenesis (FODO) for unilateral coronal synostosis (UCS), we have transitioned to an endoscopic-assisted approach ("endo-FODO"). This study compares photogrammetric outcomes of patients who underwent FODO via an endoscopic-assisted versus open approach.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients treated for UCS from 2013 to 2023.
Background And Objectives: McCarty keyhole (MCK) is the most important entry point during orbitocranial and cranio-orbital approaches; nevertheless, its anatomic coordinates have never been detailedly described from transorbital perspective. To provide the spatial coordinates for intraorbital projection of the "mirror" MCK by using the well-established main anatomic-surgical bony landmarks met along transorbital corridor.
Methods: MCK was identified in 15 adult dry skulls (30 sides) on exocranial surface of pterional region based on the well-defined external bony landmarks: on the frontosphenoid suture, 5 to 6 mm behind the joining point (JP) of frontozygomatic suture (FZS), frontosphenoid suture (FSS), and sphenozygomatic suture (SZS).

This work presents a proof-of-concept of a robotic-driven intra-operative scanner designed for knee cartilage lesion repair, part of a system for direct in vivo bioprinting. The proposed system is based on a photogrammetric pipeline, which reconstructs the cartilage and lesion surfaces from sets of photographs acquired by a robotic-handled endoscope, and produces 3D grafts for further printing path planning. A validation on a synthetic phantom is presented, showing that, despite the cartilage smooth and featureless surface, the current prototype can accurately reconstruct osteochondral lesions and their surroundings with mean error values of 0.

Background: Consideration of ergonomic factors is important for the practice of safe and efficient minimally invasive surgery (MIS). Surgeons with smaller glove sizes have previously been reported to have increased difficulties with some minimally invasive instruments. We aim to investigate hand anthropometrics and their relationship to surgeon comfort when using MIS instruments.

Background: The number of TOETVA surgeries has increased worldwide but the anatomical passage of trocars is not clearly defined. We aimed to define detailed surgical anatomical passage of the trocars in cadavers. The incisions in oral vestibule, anatomical pathways of trocars, affected mimetic muscles, neurovascular relations of trocars and histological correlation of surgical anatomy were investigated.
