Outline of Final Research Achievements

The objective of this study is “Development of leading-edge device for the ultra-early treatment of the fetus or child”. In this study, we developed a three-dimensional image display system suitable for surgical navigation using Integral Videography, a miniature bending manipulator, a multi-view three-dimensional endoscope, a coaxial near-infrared laser ablation endoscope and a storing support system for the ovaries of children as the devices to achieve a safe and minimally invasive treatment that can improve the QOL of the affected infants.
