Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Medical Technology
  • Surgical Navigation

Background:

  • Augmented reality (AR) superimposes digital information onto a user's real-world view.
  • Advances in AR technology are increasing its availability for diverse applications.
  • Hospitals and surgeons are exploring AR's utility in operating rooms to enhance surgical procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the history and current applications of AR in spine surgery.
  • To analyze the benefits and drawbacks of using AR in spinal procedures.
  • To project the future of AR in spine surgery and identify knowledge gaps for wider adoption.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of augmented reality in spine surgery.
  • Analysis of current applications, benefits, and limitations.
  • Discussion of historical context and future potential.

Main Results:

  • AR offers surgeons enhanced visualization by overlaying patient-specific data onto the operative field.
  • Spine surgery is particularly well-suited for AR due to existing reliance on intraoperative navigation.
  • Current literature highlights potential benefits but also acknowledges drawbacks and areas needing further investigation.

Conclusions:

  • AR presents a promising tool to augment surgical performance in spine operations.
  • Wider adoption of AR in spine surgery requires addressing current knowledge gaps.
  • Future integration of AR may parallel the adoption of existing intraoperative navigation techniques.
