Surgical system and surgical support method

Abstract

Provided is a surgical system that supports a surgical operation using an observation device and a surgical robot. The surgical system includes: an observation device that observes an operative field; a surgical robot that supports a surgical tool; a fixing portion that fixes a relationship of relative position and posture between the observation device and the surgical robot; and a processing unit that performs processing for coordinate conversion between coordinates on a captured image of the observation device and coordinates of the surgical tool on the basis of the relationship of relative position and posture. The observation device includes a microscope and a pre-lens, and the fixing portion fixes a relationship of relative position and posture of the surgical robot with respect to the pre-lens.
