Equipment for infrared vision of anatomical structures applicable to assist physicians in endoscopic, fetal or laparoscopy means, and for signal processing to improve that vision The method comprises two units working together: (1) a device including an endoscope, fetoscope or laparoscope and a further optical system for acquiring a multi-mode image of the interior of the patient's body Configured with a multi-mode or multi-spectral image processing unit; and (2) hardware and software to apply at least five different field-of-view enhancement methods, ie standardization, segmentation, tracking, mapping and fusion In addition to processing the image, an improved anatomical map image of the patient and an endoscope And an image processing unit to which the infrared image is transferred, including a processing device with a navigation interface for displaying the position.
