Dual camera sequencer for microsurgical documentation.

Abstract

All currently available documentary formats have inherent compromises. The use of both video and 35-mm still photography seems to be a practical solution but introduces image quality loss (when using a beam splitter type of dual camera adapter) or increased complexity of operation and resultant surgeon distraction (when using a movable mirror type of dual camera adapter). An electronic sequencer was designed to simplify the operation of a movable mirror type of dual camera adapter, permitting the efficient production of high image quality video recordings and 35-mm slides.

A new oral surgery teaching model.

An anatomical model for teaching the practical aspects of routine oral surgery in a clinical or laboratory environment, is described. Replaceable sections allow the model to be rapidly re-used so that successive students may practise procedures such as incisions, flap reflection, bone removal, tooth removal, apicectomy and suturing. Keeping the cost per procedure to a minimum was considered to be of fundamental importance and this has been achieved through the use of 'factory produced' replacement parts.
