  • Title: High definition in minimally invasive surgery: a review of methods for recording, editing, and distributing video.
    Author: Kelly CR, Hogle NJ, Landman J, Fowler DL.
    Journal: Surg Innov; 2008 Sep; 15(3):188-93. PubMed ID: 18757378.
    Abstract:
    The use of high-definition cameras and monitors during minimally invasive procedures can provide the surgeon and operating team with more than twice the resolution of standard definition systems. Although this dramatic improvement in visualization offers numerous advantages, the adoption of high definition cameras in the operating room can be challenging because new recording equipment must be purchased, and several new technologies are required to edit and distribute video. The purpose of this review article is to provide an overview of the popular methods for recording, editing, and distributing high-definition video. This article discusses the essential technical concepts of high-definition video, reviews the different kinds of equipment and methods most often used for recording, and describes several options for video distribution.
