Introduction: In liver surgery, medical images from pre-operative computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are the basis for decision-making process. These used in surgery planning guidance, especially parenchyma-sparing hepatectomies. Though commonly visualized two dimensions (2D), surgeons need to mentally reconstruct this information three (3D) a spatial understanding of anatomy. The aim work is investigate whether use 3D model mixed reality with Microsoft HoloLens increases...

Conventional surgical navigation systems rely on preoperative imaging to provide guidance. In laparoscopic liver surgery, insufflation of the abdomen (pneumoperitoneum) can cause deformations liver, introducing inaccuracies in correspondence between images and intraoperative reality. This study evaluates improvements provided by for navigation, when displayed as augmented reality (AR). Significant differences were found terms accuracy AR, favor imaging. addition, results showed an effect...

The success of minimally invasive interventions and the remarkable technological medical progress have made endoscopic image enhancement a very active research field. Due to intrinsic domain characteristics surgical exercise, stereo images may suffer from different degradations which affect its quality. Therefore, in order provide surgeons with better visual feedback improve outcomes possible subsequent processing steps, namely, 3-D organ reconstruction/registration, it would be interesting...

In laparoscopic liver resection, surgeons conventionally rely on anatomical landmarks detected through a laparoscope, preoperative volumetric images and ultrasound to compensate for the challenges of minimally invasive access. Image guidance using optical tracking registration procedures is promising tool, although often undermined by its inaccuracy. This study evaluates novel surgical navigation solution that can deformations an accurate effective method. The proposed relies robotic C-arm...
