Intra-operative applications of augmented reality in glioma surgery: a systematic review

Anya Ragnhildstveit,
Chao Li,
Mackenzie H. Zimmerman
et al.

Abstract: BackgroundAugmented reality (AR) is increasingly being explored in neurosurgical practice. By visualizing patient-specific, three-dimensional (3D) models in real time, surgeons can improve their spatial understanding of complex anatomy and pathology, thereby optimizing intra-operative navigation, localization, and resection. Here, we aimed to capture applications of AR in glioma surgery, their current status and future potential.MethodsA systematic review of the literature was conducted. This adhered to the Pr… Show more

“…Radical resection requires thorough preoperative preparation by neurosurgeons, especially when the lesion is located in challenging intracranial areas [66][67][68][69]. The application of AR technology in this context has significant implications for SB surgery, enabling precise surgical planning and achieving radical resection in certain neoplasm forms such as gliomas [68][69][70][71]. Given the complexity of SB surgery in neurosurgery, educational challenges for young neurosurgeons are common [72].…”

“…Continuous intraoperative imaging and regular recalibration of navigation systems are crucial to mitigate these risks and ensure the highest level of surgical precision and patient safety. The study also emphasizes the need for consistency in AR workflows and the development of standardized measures to evaluate the accuracy and clinical utility of AR systems ( 105 ).…”
