Image rotation in an endoscopic hyperspectral, fluorescence, and laser mapping imaging system

A system comprising:

• an endoscope;
• a handpiece unit;
• an emitter for emitting a plurality of pulses of electromagnetic radiation, wherein the emitter comprises a plurality of electromagnetic sources comprising:
• a hyperspectral source of electromagnetic radiation for pulsing electromagnetic radiation within a waveband comprising one or more wavelengths selected to elicit a spectral response from a tissue, and one or more of:
• a fluorescence source for pulsing a fluorescence excitation wavelength of electromagnetic radiation,
• a mapping source for pulsing electromagnetic radiation to generate mapping data, or
• a visible source of electromagnetic radiation;
• an image sensor comprising a pixel array for sensing electromagnetic radiation;
• and
• a controller in electronic communication with the emitter and the image sensor that is configured to synchronize operation of the emitter and the image sensor;
• and
• a rotation sensor for sensing rotation of the handpiece unit and/or the endoscope.
