Objective:
Create three-dimensional anatomical and augmented reality models for the study of neuroanatomy, from cadaveric models using photogrammetry for three-dimensional reconstruction, comparing two software, one fully automated and the other semi-automated with classic books for the study of neuroanatomy.
Method:
Three-dimensional anatomical models were created through the photogrammetry technique and by means of two software. The objects were evaluated by the neurosurgery residents.
Results:
Three three-dimensional anatomical models were created from photogrammetry for each program and evaluated with a survey applied to 23 neurosurgery residents.
Conclusions:
There is no significant difference between the 3DF Zephyr© 2021 3Dflow tool for creating anatomical three-dimensional objects in a semi-automated way compared to Autodesk ReCap Photo 22.1 Automated Software© 2021 Autodesk, Inc. The residents consider that the models made in this work are useful in learning neuroanatomy.
