Image-guided surgery (IGS) in otology/neurotology is currently limited but shows significant potential. Applications include instrument control, robotic procedures like mastoidectomy, and minimally invasive techniques such as cochlear implantation.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Otolaryngology
  • Medical Technology

Background:

  • Clinical adoption of image-guided surgery (IGS) in otology/neurotology remains limited.
  • Despite limited use, the field presents a substantial market and diverse application potential.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the potential applications of image-guided surgery (IGS) in otology/neurotology.
  • To highlight the benefits and feasibility of integrating IGS into ear and neurotological procedures.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current and potential applications of IGS in otology/neurotology.
  • Analysis of technological capabilities for surgical instrument control and robotic procedures.

Main Results:

  • IGS offers applications in precise surgical instrument control, preventing damage to critical structures.
