Outline of Final Research Achievements	The purpose of this study was 'Clinical application of surgical navigation system using image-recognition technique'. This surgical navigation system　promise　the　safty　for　surgeons　by　indicating　of　important　vessels,　bronchus　and　nerves　intraoperatively. Furthermore, this system also indicates the distance between surgical margin and tumor. We made virtual operation systems using 3D-printing, and measured and recorded those parameter and calcurating errors. Although we had difficulties of compencating those errors and of making realtime indicating systems intra-operatively, after overcoming those difficulties we could applying the system for clinical use.
