Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Spinal Surgery
  • Medical Technology

Background:

  • Augmented reality (AR) is increasingly explored to enhance surgical precision.
  • Spine surgery presents complex anatomical challenges requiring advanced visualization tools.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the utility and effectiveness of microscope-based augmented reality (AR) in diverse spinal procedures.
  • To assess AR's impact on anatomical orientation and surgical workflow.

Main Methods:

  • A prospective, observational study involving 42 spinal surgeries utilizing AR via microscope head-up displays (HUDs).
  • Intraoperative low-dose CT for registration and nonlinear image registration for multimodality image integration.
  • AR visualization of target and risk structures defined by automatic mapping and manual segmentation.

Main Results:

  • Successful AR application in all 42 cases across various spinal pathologies (tumors, degenerative, infections, deformities).
  • Low registration error (0.87 ± 0.28 mm) ensured reliable AR representation and improved anatomical orientation.
  • Flexible AR visualization and selective object display facilitated seamless workflow integration without procedural disruption.

Conclusions:

  • Microscope-based AR is a viable and successful technology for a wide range of spinal surgeries.
  • AR significantly enhances anatomical orientation for surgeons and shows potential as an educational tool.
