“…However, only very few reports are available on the use of AR, VR, or MR for surgical planning or intraoperative navigation for lung surgery [53][54][55]. Frajhof The Realm of Oncological Lung Surgery: From Past to Present and Future Perspectives DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.90658 et al recently published a study on the use of AR, VR, and MR technology in the preoperative planning of a technically demanding VATS left upper lobectomy [53]. In another study from Rouzé et al, augmented reality was used as a navigation tool in combination with cone beam CT (CBCT) to guide intraoperative localization of pulmonary nodules for wedge resection through VATS.…”

In this chapter, a historical overview as well as an overview of state of the art of the surgical techniques for the treatment of lung cancer is outlined. The chapter focuses on the introduction of open surgery, video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS), uniportal VATS (UVATS), and robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) techniques for lung resections. A short introduction on upcoming techniques and modalities is given. The currently available tools as three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT), virtual reality, and endo-bronchial surgery will be discussed. Based on the current development, this chapter attempts to delineate the horizon of oncological lung surgery. The information is generated not only from the available literature, but also from the experiences of surgeons and other physicians as well as co-workers involved in lung cancer treatment around the world. This chapter can be seen as a general introduction to several aspects of oncological lung surgery.

“…In the setting of thoracic surgery, XR tools allow for anatomical assessment, surgical training through lifelike procedural simulations, preoperative planning of surgeries and biopsies, and interoperative guidance [ 1 , 2 ]. AR furthers this technology by superimposing VR onto real-world environments, displaying information and data on various levels of the reality–virtuality continuum [ 3 , 4 ].…”

OBJECTIVES Extended reality (XR), encompassing both virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality, allows the user to interact with a computer-generated environment based on reality. In essence, the immersive nature of VR and augmented reality technology has been warmly welcomed in all aspects of medicine, gradually becoming increasingly feasible to incorporate into everyday practice. In recent years, XR has become increasingly adopted in thoracic surgery, although the extent of its applications is unclear. Here, we aim to review the current applications of XR in thoracic surgery. METHODS A systematic database search was conducted of original articles that explored the use of VR and/or augmented reality in thoracic surgery in EMBASE, MEDLINE, Cochrane database and Google Scholar, from inception to December 2020. RESULTS Our search yielded 1494 citations, of which 21 studies published from 2007 to 2019 were included in this review. Three main areas were identified: (i) the application of XR in thoracic surgery training; (ii) preoperative planning of thoracic procedures; and (iii) intraoperative assistance. Overall, XR could produce progression along the learning curve, enabling trainees to reach acceptable standards before performing in the operating theatre. Preoperatively, through the generation of 3D-renderings of the thoracic cavity and lung anatomy, VR increases procedural accuracy and surgical confidence through familiarization of the patient’s anatomy. XR-assisted surgery may have therapeutic use particularly for complex cases, where conventional methods would yield inadequate outcomes due to inferior accuracy. CONCLUSION XR represents a salient step towards improving thoracic surgical training, as well as enhancing preoperative planning and intraoperative guidance.

“…In some other studies conducted by Vavra et al (2017) [8] and Kim et al (2017) [9], augmented reality was described as a projection and interaction-based technology to interact and project computergenerated images in a real environment. Current AR-related research has resulted in several advanced prototypes that promote AR as a prominent technology and call for future research to explore new prototypes and strategies [10] [11].…”

“…These days, the advancement of AR technology in healthcare has become highly significant with its vast arrays of applications. AR-based healthcare systems are being incorporated with computer vision [6], object detection and identification [18], image processing [10] [16], image segmentation [12] and cloud computing technology [14] [15]. AR-based healthcare solution has achieved several prominent advancements, such as more secure connectivity and privacy across individual patients [17], more speed while providing quality diagnosis and treatment with more reliability [35].…”

The recent advances of Augmented Reality (AR) in healthcare have shown that technology is a significant part of the current healthcare system. In recent days, augmented reality has proposed numerous intelligent applications in the healthcare domain including, wearable access, telemedicine, remote surgery, diagnosis of medical reports, emergency medicine, etc. These developed augmented healthcare applications aim to improve patient care, increase efficiency, and decrease costs. Therefore, to identify the advances of AR-based healthcare applications, this article puts on an effort to perform an analysis of 45 peerreviewed journal and conference articles from scholarly databases between 2011 and 2020. It also addresses concurrent concerns and their relevant future challenges including, user satisfaction, convenient prototypes, service availability, maintenance cost, etc. Despite the development of several AR healthcare applications, there are some untapped potentials regarding secure data transmission, which is an important factor for advancing this cuttingedge technology. Therefore, this paper also analyzes distinct AR security and privacy including, security requirements (i.e., scalability, confidentiality, integrity, resiliency, etc.) and attack terminologies (i.e. sniffing, fabrication, modification, interception, etc.). Based on the security issues, in this paper, we propose an artificial intelligence-based dynamic solution to build an intelligent security model to minimize data security risks. This intelligent model can identify seen and unseen threats in the threat detection layer and thus can protect data during data transmission. In addition, it prevents external attacks in the threat elimination layer using threat reduction mechanisms.
