title: Three-dimensional videomonitor in neurosurgery--technical note.
abstract: The operation microscope was equipped with two small camera heads on both sides, with a 35-mm still camera, and with or without a binocular observer tube. These camera heads were connected with 3-dimensional (3D) converter. Authors can observed the 3D images of the operation field on a monitor T.V. through polarization glasses. The microscope with two camera heads is easy to handle because these camera heads are small and light. This is a promising monitor system in microsurgery.
