optnote = {We present a novel approach for enhancing images and video used in
endoscopic surgery so that they are better able to convey shape.
Our method is based on multi-flash imaging, in which multiple light
sources are strategically positioned to cast shadows along depth
discontinuities. We describe designs for achieving multi-flash
imaging using multiple endoscopes as well as in single endoscopes.
Multi-flash photography can also be used for creating medical
illustrations. By highlighting the detected edges, suppressing
unnecessary details, or combining features from multiple images,
the resulting images convey more clearly the 3D structure of the
subject. The method is easy to implement both in software and
hardware, and can operate in realtime.},
