Viking Systems Gets European Green Light for 3D Surgery System

Having obtained approval from the FDA in September for its 3DHD Vision System, Viking Systems has now also received CE certification in Europe.
The system delivers “state-of-the-art 3D vision with natural depth perception and tactile sensation” for laparoscopic and other minimally invasive procedures.
The system is the first of its kind where the surgeon, without a heads-up display or any other special adjustments, can comfortably wear light-weight glasses and operate in a 3D environment. The 3DHD is currently on show at MEDICA 2010 in Dusseldorf, Germany.
