OBJECTIVE The traditional freehand technique for external ventricular drain (EVD) placement is most frequently used, but remains the primary risk factor inaccurate placement. As this procedure could benefit from image guidance, authors set forth to demonstrate impact of augmented-reality (AR) assistance on accuracy and learning curve EVD compared with technique. METHODS Sixteen medical students performed a total 128 placements custom-made phantom head, both before after receiving...
This study used the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use Technology (UTAUT) to investigate acceptance HMD-based AR surgical navigation.An experiment was conducted in which participants drilled 12 predefined holes using freehand drilling, proprioceptive control, assistance. assessed through a survey non-participant observations.Participants' intention use correlated (p < 0.05) with social influence (Spearman's rho (rs) = 0.599), perceived performance improvement (rs 0.592) attitude towards...
In several orthopedic procedures, the accurate use of surgical power tools is critical to avoid damage surrounding tissues. As such, various guidance techniques and safety measures were developed. Augmented reality (AR) shows promise but requires validation. We evaluated a new approach using an inside-out infrared tracking solution for HoloLens compensate its limited performance. Eighteen participants with varying levels experience (student, trainee, expert) each drilled twelve trajectories...
<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Cancer is an important cause of mortality globally, and its impact can be mitigated through early detection. Despite the efficacy screening programs, their adoption remains suboptimal. Emerging technologies integrating artificial intelligence (AI) offer possibilities for improving participation in screening, as they are painless free radiation. However, AI also elicits ethical questions regarding responsible use. This study focuses on value driven solutions...
