A HoloLens application for pre-operative patient planning was approved by the American Food and Drug Administration FDA.
The HoloLens application OpenSight Augmented Reality System is one augmented reality for surgery applications, κατασκευασμένη από την εταιρεία Novarad και δίνει την δυνατότητα στους χειρούργους να δημιουργήσουν διαδραστικές 2D, 3D και ακόμη και 4D pictures anatomy of their patients, accurately projecting them onto the patient's body to enable accurate surgical planning.
Unlike previous pre-operative planning systems that use virtual reality, OpenSight uses the glasses Microsoft HoloLens®, which allow physicians to view 3D images of patients in augmented reality, highlight relevant anatomy and avoid critical structures, while also placing virtual tools and guidance systems to more accurately plan a surgical approach .
Overlapping of holograms can be observed simultaneously by multiple users of HoloLens glasses, which makes them useful in both clinical and educational environments. In addition, an educational version of the software available for medical students is provided to perform virtual dissections in corpses.
