† Image Resolution was Measured with USAF 1951 card. The resolution of EleVision™ 4K was measured to be higher than Stryker™* 1688 at a nominal operating distance of 40 mm; as well as a far-field distance of 70 mm .

‡ 17 surgeons rated the image color and clarity of Elevision™ 4K against Stryker 1688™* and Olympus Visera™* 4K.

§ 10 out of 17 surgeons scored Elevision 4K™* higher than Stryker1688™* and Visera™* 4K on natural appearance of color.

|| 11 out of 17 surgeons scored Elevision™ 4K higher than Stryker1688™* and Visera™* 4K on color of blood,distinguishing between different structures, overall clarity and consistency of image accross the screen.

¶ 12 out of 17 surgeons scored Elevision™ 4K higher than Stryker1688™* and Visera™* 4K on color separation and 14 out of 17 surgeons scored Elevision™ 4K higher than Stryker1688 ™* and Visera ™* 4K on sharpness.

# 6 of 6 surgeons agreed that more edge enhancement (laparoscopy 1) provided more visual information of anatomoical structures.

** Compared to CCD sensors.

†† Preclinical evaluation. 17 surgeons rated the performance of image color and sharpness rated at 80% and 91%, respectively.

‡‡ 32 out of 32 surgeons and nurses easily completed all pre-, intra-, and post-operative usability tasks prior to any training. Data based on usability of EleVision™ HD 2 platform. Industrial design & user experience of the EleVision™ 4K system are equivalent to the EleVision™ HD 2 platform.

§§ Compared to Novadaq Spy™*, Hamamatsu PDE™*, Fluoptics Fluobeam™* 800, Quest Medical Spectrum™*, Curadel Lab-Flare™*, PerkinElmer Solaris™*, and SurgVision Explorer Air™*.  August 2016.

|||| Compared to white light image. 13 out of 19 surgeons surveyed agreed. Imaging mode evaluation performed with the EleVision™ HD 2 platform.

¶¶ Compared to SD image quality.

## Dual chip-on-tip technology consists of a distally located CMOS sensor and integrated LED lights.

*** TipVision™ has fixed depth-of-field of 20mm-200mm with most optimal image between 30mm and 60mm.

††† Compared to a traditional rod-lens laparoscope when used in a laparoscopic cholecystectomy and a laparscopic TAPP hernia repair.

§§§ Bench test results may not necessarily be indicative of clinical performance.
