Conjoined twins are described as having been physically fused during pregnancy and delivery. They were first mentioned a long time ago when there was not much known about this. They share some organs that are vital for survival, like the heart; these twins are almost impossible to save, but there are some cases wherein there is evidence of their survival. The article aims to present a unique discussion on conjoined twins. This article talks about the formation of conjoint twins, their types and nomenclatures, embryological concepts, past history/traditional tales, case studies, and the medical enhancements happening in this area. Both fission and fusion are thought to contribute to the disease. A monozygotic twin pregnancy cleaves when it occurs more than thirteen days after fertilization. There is just one placenta and one womb for conjoined twins (one amniotic sac). The twins that are born and stay alive after delivery usually stay alive for a few days or weeks. It's pretty rare for them to live a long prosperous life, but this article shows the otherwise, too, like the Siamese twins, which is a unique example of conjoint twins who lived for a long time. This kind of pregnancy is a complex procedure that needs to be managed by a team of professionals.

Breast surgery is performed to achieve local control in patients with breast cancer. Visualization of the anatomy with a virtual reality software platform reconstructed from magnetic resonance imaging data improves surgical planning with regards to volume and localization of the tumor, lymph nodes, blood vessels, and surrounding tissue to perform oncoplastic tissue rearrangement. We report the use and advantages of virtual reality added to the magnetic resonance imaging assessment in a 36-year-old woman with breast cancer who underwent nipple sparing mastectomy with tissue expander reconstruction.

“…Examples of these active initiatives are found in Arivis AG and syGlass (see Table 1 in El Beheiry et al, 2020 ). Within the context of medical applications, initiatives have also focused on education ( Djukic et al, 2013 ; Fertleman et al, 2018 ; Bouaoud et al, 2020 ; Shao et al, 2020 ; Venkatesan et al, 2021 ), surgery planning and diagnosis ( Reitinger et al, 2006 ; Ong et al, 2018 ; Pfeiffer et al, 2018 ; Ayoub and Pulijala, 2019 ; Lee and Wong, 2019 ; Pinter et al, 2020 ; Wake et al, 2020 ; Boedecker et al, 2021 ; Chheang et al, 2021 ; Laas et al, 2021 ; Lau et al, 2021 ; Raimondi et al, 2021 ; Ruiz et al, 2021 ; Venkatesan et al, 2021 ).…”

“…Craniofacial trauma education ( Bouaoud et al, 2020 ), neurosurgical training ( Bernardo, 2017 ), spinal surgery ( Pfandler et al, 2017 ), anatomy education ( Uruthiralingam and Rea, 2020 ), orthopedic surgery ( Bartlett et al, 2018 ; Walbron et al, 2019 ; Yoo et al, 2019 ; Lohre et al, 2020 ) and patient education ( Dyer et al, 2018 ) have been demonstrated in this regard. Furthermore, clinical results hint towards uses of VR in surgical applications spanning heart diseases ( Ayerbe et al, 2020 ; Sadeghi et al, 2020 ; Hattab et al, 2021 ; Raimondi et al, 2021 ), breast cancer ( Tomikawa et al, 2010 ; Laas et al, 2021 ), liver surgery ( Reitinger et al, 2006 ; Quero et al, 2019 ; Golse et al, 2020 ; Lang and Huber, 2020 ; Boedecker et al, 2021 ), pediatric surgery ( Wang et al, 2012 ; Ruiz et al, 2021 ; Salvatore et al, 2021 ) and orthopaedic surgery ( Bartlett et al, 2018 ; Yoo et al, 2019 ; Verhey et al, 2020 ).

Three-dimensional imaging is at the core of medical imaging and is becoming a standard in biological research. As a result, there is an increasing need to visualize, analyze and interact with data in a natural three-dimensional context. By combining stereoscopy and motion tracking, commercial virtual reality (VR) headsets provide a solution to this critical visualization challenge by allowing users to view volumetric image stacks in a highly intuitive fashion. While optimizing the visualization and interaction process in VR remains an active topic, one of the most pressing issue is how to utilize VR for annotation and analysis of data. Annotating data is often a required step for training machine learning algorithms. For example, enhancing the ability to annotate complex three-dimensional data in biological research as newly acquired data may come in limited quantities. Similarly, medical data annotation is often time-consuming and requires expert knowledge to identify structures of interest correctly. Moreover, simultaneous data analysis and visualization in VR is computationally demanding. Here, we introduce a new procedure to visualize, interact, annotate and analyze data by combining VR with cloud computing. VR is leveraged to provide natural interactions with volumetric representations of experimental imaging data. In parallel, cloud computing performs costly computations to accelerate the data annotation with minimal input required from the user. We demonstrate multiple proof-of-concept applications of our approach on volumetric fluorescent microscopy images of mouse neurons and tumor or organ annotations in medical images.
