Embarking on a New Era of Precision Treatment
By combining virtual images with reality and integrating tracking systems, it provides surgeons with more intuitive and precise surgical assistance tools.
Real-Time Display: Includes anatomical structures, surgical paths, and surgical markers.
Image Overlay: During surgery, AR glasses externally display the patient’s actual affected area while presenting virtual images internally, synchronizing the inside and outside views.
Accurate Tracking: Optical infrared technology tracks the position of surgical instrument markers in real time, ensuring the accuracy of the navigation system.
CAN BE USED FOR…
Spine Surgery: The spinal anatomy is surrounded by densely packed blood vessels and complex nerves. Minimizing incision size, improving surgical efficiency, and reducing patient recovery time are goals that surgeons strive for. Accurate navigation systems can assist surgeons in achieving these goals.
For Patients:
– Preoperatively, they can intuitively understand the surgical procedure and plan.
– Postoperatively, they benefit from smaller incisions and reduced recovery time.
For Doctors:
– The intuitive interface has a short learning curve.
– The assistance system reduces risks and enhances surgical efficiency.
Differences between AR, VR, and MR
Category | Definition | Example | User Experience |
AR (Augmented Reality) | Adds virtual images to real-world scenes | Pokemon Go | Adds virtual elements to the real world |
VR (Virtual Reality) | Places users in an enclosed virtual space | VR games | Fully immersed in a virtual environment |
MR (Mixed Reality) | Combines AR and VR, perceiving both reality and virtual worlds simultaneously | Industrial design, medical training | Merges reality and virtual world, allowing interaction |
