There is provided a medical observation device that includes an imaging unit that can image an environment inside an abdominal cavity of a living body, and the imaging unit includes a plurality of first pixels that are aligned in a matrix, and an event detection unit that detects a luminance change amount of light incident on each of the plurality of first pixels exceeds a predetermined threshold.

Medical observation device, observation device, observation method, and adapter

The present disclosure relates to a medical observation system, an image processing method, and a program capable of providing image display more helpful for a surgeon. A correction processing unit performs correction processing on a wide-angle image which is a captured image of a medical treatment target, a clipping processing unit moves a clipping area for a display image clipped from the wide-angle image, and a correction control unit controls the correction processing according to a relative state of the clipping area to the wide-angle image. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, an endoscopic surgery system.

Medical observation system, image processing method, and program

There is provided a photoelectric composite module according to the present disclosure including: a first connecting member having an outer frame having a tubular shape, and a plurality of contacts provided in an interior of the outer frame; a first printed board on which a photoelectric conversion element configured to convert an electrical signal into an optical signal is mounted, and which is configured to act as a relay between the contacts and the photoelectric conversion element; and a second printed board configured to act as a relay between the contacts and an electrical signal cable. The first printed board and the second printed board are three-dimensionally arranged.

Photoelectric composite module, camera head, and endoscopic device

An endoscope image-capturing device includes: a first case inside of which is sealed; an image sensor arranged inside the first case; an electro-optic conversion element arranged outside the first case and configured to convert an image signal output from the image sensor into an optical signal; and a sealing member sealing the electro-optic conversion element.

Endoscope image-capturing device and endoscope device

A plug as an optical connector is configured to connect mechanically and optically with a receptacle, wherein part of an optical fibre for transmitting an optical signal is disposed internally. The plug includes a tubular plug-side first outer wall into which the optical fibre is inserted, configured to cover an optical signal-emitting end of the optical fibre. An end side of the plug-side first outer wall to be connected to the receptacle is sealed by a plug-side cover member translucent to an optical signal. In the optical connector intrusion of liquid and foreign substances can be suppressed, and reliability of optical communication can be ensured.
