Abstract:
We present a novel, efficient approach to demonstrating supplemental margins during oncologic resection. Surgeons and pathologists annotated 10 virtual models of surgical defects and resection specimens in 3D using an iPad-based application, Procreate®. Incorporating this method into the surgical workflow can improve interdepartmental communication and provide visual documentation of surgical steps taken to address at-risk margins.
