Jul 04, 2024

Professor Min Jae-seok of Gastrointestinal Surgery at Korea University Anam Hospital won the 'Penary Oral Presentation Award'' at the first international academic conference (FORS 2024)' held at Grand Hyatt Incheon from June 28 to 29.

Professor Min Jae-seok received the award for presenting 'Development of a Novel Motion Tracking Laparoscopic Camera System: a Feasibility Study', a study that developed and evaluated a new camera system for laparoscopic surgery to treat surgical patients.

Professor Min "Recently, the problem of shortage of surgical assistants has emerged, especially the lack of skilled laparoscopic camera assistants causing many difficulties in surgery. Nevertheless, laparoscopic surgery should be performed as safely as possible, and the development of a new system in which the surgeon can accurately manipulate the camera during laparoscopic surgery is required."

In this presentation, Professor Min introduced the results of evaluation on the development and applicability of laparoscopic camera systems using Information and Communication Technology (ICT), and "The laparoscopic camera system developed in this study operated properly during the experiment, and its size and weight were also suitable for use." he announced.

Professor Min "The newly developed ICT motion tracking laparoscopic camera system will help surgeons perform laparoscopic surgery comfortably and safely without the help of laparoscopic camera assistants, and we hope that it will be useful in real surgical environments through further research in the future." he said.
