Area of Science:

  • Surgical technology
  • Medical imaging
  • Computer-assisted surgery

Background:

  • Surgical procedures have advanced significantly, with intraoperative imaging enhancing minimally invasive techniques.
  • Augmented reality (AR) in surgery is a rapidly developing field of research and application.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel approach for augmented reality in surgery.
  • To develop software architecture for interactive adjustment of 3D models and endoscopic video registration.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized computer vision algorithms on intraoperative video feeds.
  • Integrated preoperative 3D patient models with live endoscopic camera views using landmarks.
  • Developed a software architecture for real-time, interactive registration adjustments between 3D models and surgical video.

Main Results:

  • Successfully applied AR in 12 surgeries, including adrenalectomy and ureteropelvic junction obstruction repair.
  • Surgeons reported positive feedback, particularly regarding improved landmark identification and anatomical awareness.
  • Demonstrated the feasibility of AR for guiding surgical interventions with minimal disruption to the operating room setup.

Conclusions:

  • The presented approach enables the use of deformable 3D models to visualize soft tissue changes during surgery.
  • The developed software architecture facilitates interactive adjustments for accurate registration of 3D models with endoscopic video.
  • This technology enhances surgical precision and decision-making in minimally invasive procedures.
