124. A systematic review of techniques used to validate the registration of AR images using a head-mounted device to navigate surgery

Abstract

Augmented Reality (AR) Head Mounted Devices (HMD) allow the wearer to have digital images superposed onto their field of vision. It is being used to superpose annotations onto the surgical field akin to a navigation system. This review examines the published validation studies on HMD-AR systems, their reported protocols and outcomes. The aim is to establish commonalities and an acceptable registration outcome.
