    Digital Hybrid Visualization

    Switch between exoscopic and optical mode

    ZEISS PENTERO 800 S enables you to leverage the benefits of an exoscope with 4K 3D resolution while still having access to the proven optics of an operating microscope at any time. With our unique hybrid approach, you can easily switch between digital and optical visualization during the procedure.

    This gives you the full flexibility to choose your preferred method for optimized team communication, ergonomic posture, and free movement. All while relying on excellent image quality with unrestricted depth information in every mode.

  • How does Digital Hybrid Visualization work?

    The ZEISS PENTERO 800 S is available with an integrated 4K 3D camera, which captures a video stream that is displayed live on the device monitor and can be additionally shown on an external 4K 3D monitor. When switching from ocular view to monitor view, the microscope head can be moved upwards or angled to the side, utilizing the full working distance. Switch to monitor mode on the device interface to quickly optimize the optical settings for exoscopic work.

    The surgical team wears 3D glasses from ZEISS to get a clear view with accurate depth perception via the screen. The video stream can be mirrored on a second 4K 3D monitor to match orientation of the surgical team with respect to the patient position. It is also possible to use ocular and digital mode at the same time.

  • Extend your surgical view in deep corridors with Depth+

    Depth+

    for enhanced depth of field

    Spend less time on repeatedly adjusting focus and zoom when performing surgery in deep anatomical structures and corridors under moderate to high magnification. For example, during a minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF), instant visual information on different anatomical layers is key to an efficient and safe procedure.

    With the new Depth+ mode, you can further increase depth of field for a higher resolution in the outer area of your current focal point. Enabling you to see everything in your field of view sharply with just a click – whenever you need it.

    Depth+ case example

    Anterior cervical decompression surgery

    Compare the images of Standard mode and the Depth+ mode of the decompression surgery (anterior cervical spine surgery C3 - C4) and experience the difference in the depth of field. Thanks to the new Depth+ mode, the focus is on both the disc space and the anterior wall.
     

  • Look around corners with ZEISS QEVO for additional reassurance during surgery

    ZEISS QEVO

    The Micro-Inspection Tool

    When working with a surgical microscope in minimally invasive procedures, your view is limited to a straight line of sight – missing critical information behind tissue or corners.

    With the unique Micro-Inspection Tool QEVO® from ZEISS, you can eliminate these blind spots in the microsurgical view and effectively look around corners. Whenever needed, plug it in to your ZEISS PENTERO 800 S to get an immediate endoscopic view on the anatomy without increasing the surgical footprint.

    Providing efficient access to additional visual information – for greater certainty during your procedures.

  • ZEISS QEVO in a spinal cyst resection surgery

    ZEISS QEVO case example

    Spinal cyst resection surgery

    Watch the video from the perspective of the Micro-Inspection Tool – ZEISS QEVO and follow the surgeon's check after the resection of a cyst for adhesions up to the anterior spinal artery.

  • ZEISS QEVO can assist you during surgery

    Spinal applications where ZEISS QEVO can assist you during surgery:

    • During intradural spinal tumor cases, you can look around the spinal cord for additional inspection of areas that are not visualized by the operating microscope’s direct line of sight.
    • During a thoracolumbar corpectomy, you can inspect the outcome of removing parts of the intervertebral discs or bone.
    • In spinal fusion surgery, you can use ZEISS QEVO to inspect the cage, the spinal dura, and the nerve root by visualizing hidden areas behind the cage.
    • In cases with minimal access, such as extreme lumbar interbody fusion (XLIF) or anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF), you can use ZEISS QEVO to look around the corner.
  • Refined resolution for an unprecedented level of surgical precision

    Resolution Enhancer

    for demanding reconstructive surgery

    When performing surgery on delicate anatomical structures, such as during a lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA), even the smallest details can make a huge difference.

    ZEISS PENTERO 800 S assists you in performing such procedures with more confidence by delivering additional clarity on submillimeter level. Just attach the unique Resolution Enhancer to the microscope head and instantly get 60% higher magnification and 50% higher resolution with at least 120 lp/mm1. Thereby, you can zoom in closer on the application at hand and at the same time increase image quality to reliably visualize even the smallest details (submillimeter vessels).

  • How does the Resolution Enhancer work?

    The Resolution Enhancer is stored right with your ZEISS PENTERO 800 S. Prior to procedures where additional magnification and resolution are required, it can be easily mounted underneath the microscope head by inserting it into the rail and fasten the built-in screw. On the device interface, you are prompted to balance the operating microscope by starting the AutoBalance function.

    The Resolution Enhancer must be equipped before draping the visualization system. SMARTDRAPE® from ZEISS also fits with the Resolution Enhancer attached to the ZEISS PENTERO 800 S.

    To differentiate anatomical structures under high magnification, you need to differentiate between the different pixels captured by the visualization system. Just the number of pixels is not sufficient since lighter and darker pixels might not be seen separately if they are next to each other. Specifying resolution by spatial frequency, defined by the number of light and dark line pairs per millimeter (lp/mm) at a given contrast, is thus a more precise measure to evaluate how much information on fine anatomical structures is provided by the visualization system.
