BENEFITS

FOR CLINICIANS

Images from endoscopes, surgical microscopes and room

cameras can be routed, recorded and viewed from anywhere

over hospital-wide IP networks. This makes it easier for doctors

and clinical staff to repurpose content for presentations and

lectures.

An end-to-end IP workflow solution allows surgeons in the OR to

capture and share live high-resolution video and patient data

with other doctors and medical students across the hospital

campus and beyond.

FOR MEDICAL STAFF

Today’s hospitals are characterized by a large number of isolated

AV systems and processes. This complexity has an impact on

efficiency and reliability, forcing medical staff to spend valuable

time on non-care-related tasks.

NUCLeUS integrated IP solutions streamline the modern clinical

AV-workflow, replacing incompatible data formats and connectors

with the simplicity, cost efficiency and resilience of a single LAN-

based connection between all system elements for quick

configuration and simplified support.

FOR HOSPITAL MANAGERS

Adding new medical devices and systems requires costly, time-

consuming installation and training for hospital staff. What’s

more, extra hardware and file formats can mean headaches over

the security and integrity of valuable clinical data.

Our IP workflow solutions make it easier to add extra hardware

and functionality as your needs grow. Moreover, NUCLeUS

provides safe and secure data management suite where you can

review, edit and annotate recordings with all digital assets stored

on a secure server.

FOR SYSTEM INTEGRATORS

With Video over IP by Sony, medical system integrators can offer

hospitals a powerful, highly flexible video workflow solution with

the capacity and versatility to meet the needs of today and

tomorrow. It offers low total cost of ownership and enables easy

system integration and maintenance.

An all-IP architecture provides a seamless upgrade path from HD

to 4K, while open APIs simplify rapid customization of OR

controllers and integration with other hospital systems.

The Smart Video-Over-IP Digital Operating Room Platform

Achieve simultaneous recording of all OR video sources, in any combination of formats and resolutions. Or reach outside the hospital and share an accurate visual record of surgical interventions at conferences and lectures.

• Centralized storage on hospital network servers• Low-latency real-time streaming• Link video with metadata including patient ID, timings, surgeon’s name, etc.

This allows you to exchange real-time video content with colleagues and allow you to annotate live streams remotely. The annotated image is then made available again in real-time in the operating room.

• Can be remotely viewed and annotated. The annotation are also displayed in the OR in real-time• View content from any source, any time• Encrypted data and secure client login for greater security• Easy user-group and access management

• NUCLeUS is able to respond to present and future needs by using a software and network based platform.• A remote maintenance service can monitor the operation status of the system from outside the hospital and notify

you by raising an alarm if there is a problem.• Just in case there is an unexpected network breakdown, the vital surgical sources are primary cabled; this failsafe

system prevents problems during surgery.

Switching

NUCLeUS|OR

There is so much information within the OR, ranging from live

video signals from the endoscope, ultrasound streams, PACS

workstation input and biplane fluoroscopes to the positioning of

operating lamps and surgical tables.

NUCLeUS|OR is a digital clear-touch control panel that gives the

surgeon control over all OR equipment. The platform includes

many flexible visualization options such as switching to multiple

monitors in full screen, picture-in-picture or in multi-split.

This is advantageous for OR ergonomics and efficiency; it also

delivers financial benefits.

NUCLeUS Components

NUCLeUS is a unique combination of a user-friendly software platform, low footprint hardware units, and a powerful computing server.

Data Management

NUCLeUS|Archive

This is a safe and secure data management suite allowing

recordings to be reviewed, edited and annotated.

NUCLeUS introduces a unique feature- a simultaneous recording

function. It provides convenient archiving of all patient and

image data, while recordings can be seamlessly integrated with

PACS, EPR and HIS.

The surgeon can record multiple sources at the same time and

can even postpone the choice of recording quality until after the

intervention.

High-quality clips suitable for presentations as well as archiving-

quality clips can be launched at the same time can be used

flexibly at a later stage.

Communication Inside & Outside The Hospital

NUCLeUS|Broadcast

Knowledge sharing is the key

to better healthcare.

N U C L e U S | B r o a d c a s t

supports bi-directional audio

communication and instant

messaging. Streaming in

NUCLeUS is easy to access as

no extra software or hardware

is required. This way, a

narrowcast can be launched

on the fly and can be shown

to a limited group of people

who have securely logged

onto a web page. You can

start up meetings with peers and even go outside the hospital to

share your surgical event with a global audience.

Smart apps

Telestration Tool

Besides bi-directional audio & video communication, the

NUCLeUS platform is offering users a telestration tool. It allows

you to annotate video streams remotely and share these

annotations in real-time with the OR.

Clinicians can ask a colleague (located outside the OR) for a second

opinion. Through a secured login, this colleague can access the

telestration tool, annotate remotely the shared live image

& as a result the

annotations can

be shown in real-

time within the

OR. (Draw circles,

lines, etc. in color,

insert text, freeze

screen, etc.

NUCLeUS Components

Encoders & Decoders

Single Cable Solution

IP (Internet Protocol) is the most open and standardized system

of communication. IP technology offers hospitals a reliable and

flexible investment with a high return.

With nothing more than one IP cable between two NUCLeUS

boxes, you can secure all required multimedia data, video, and

power (in case of copper cable and usage of PoE+). This results in

a transparent installation, with no cable clutter and with cost-

effective image distribution.

eNSOR

Preconfigured Server

eNSOR is a plug-and-play appliance, developed for cost efficiency

and rapid deployment. The eNSOR preconfigured server

guarantees dedicated traffic between your server room and the

OR. The extreme computational power of NUCLeUS provides fast

and high-quality images while all processing takes place in the

data center.

Vascularization App

The Vascularization App gives you a clear and highlighted view

of all vascular structures, without being submerged in the

surrounding tissue. This App mimics the human ability to identify

veins and vessels. Just like a human observer could take a pen

and trace the vessels frame by frame, this App recognizes

patterns. The combination of pattern recognition algorithms, and

digital processing, makes it possible to automate this process

and do this in real-time adding it to a video stream.

Stabilization App

In laparoscopic surgery, angled laparoscopes are used to improve

the viewing range by rotating the scope, effectively changing the

viewing direction. The stabilization App compensates for shifts in

orientation of video from a handheld surgical endoscopic camera

due to movements of the surgeon’s hand position. Video

remains stable and correctly oriented, irrespective of rotational

movements. This is not only useful for assisting surgeons but is

also a valuable asset for teaching.

Overview screen for efficient OR management

Mosaic

With MOSAIC NUCLeUS offers a composite view of multiple video

streams coming from different OR’s (e.g. room camera). The

labels, size of the tiles and the position on the display can be

configured based on the requirements of the hospital. Typically

MOSAIC is used to visualize the status of every OR (in use, being

cleaned, available for a new intervention, etc.) outside the OR in

OR planning office or the head nurse office.
