Abstract
A medical microscopic system includes an observation optical system for observing an image of a part to be observed, an electronic photographing optical system for branching a beam of light incident on the observation optical system from the observation part by a beam splitter disposed in an optical path of the observation optical system and then guiding its branched beam of light to a TV camera disposed conjugate with the observation part, and an adapter lens, disposed in an optical path between the observation part and the TV camera, for changing an optical path length which causes the TV camera and the observation part to be conjugate with each other.
Claims13
A medical microscope system comprising:
- an operation microscope including an observation optical system for observing an image of a part of a subject, and an electronic photographing optical system for branching a beam of light incident on said observation optical system from said part of the subject by a branching means disposed in an optical path of said observation optical system and thereafter guiding a branched beam of light to a first electronic photographing means for transmitting image signals and conjugated with said part of the subject;
- a supporting device for supporting said operation microscope so as to be movable forward, rearward, rightward, leftward, upward and downward;
- a second electronic photographing means for transmitting image signals and disposed on a ceiling of an operation room;
- an image signal processing unit for processing the image signals transmitted from said first and second electronic photographic means;
- detecting means for detecting an amount of movement of said supporting device;
- and
- a control circuit for switching over the transmitted image signals and inputting either of said image signals to said image signal processing unit based on a detection signal of said detecting means.
