Abstract
Three dimensional (3D) reconstruction can realize the accurate preoperative diagnosis of liver and intrahepatic tumors, and can also help to complete the preoperative operation planning. 3D visual surgical navigation technology has been applied in liver surgery. Virtual reality (VR) technology is still in the primary stage of research and development. It can only simulate the operation of 3D reconstruction model of liver, but cannot fully show the actual operation scene. With the development of computer technology and the further maturity of 3D reconstruction and VR technology, their application in liver surgery is showing a bright future
Highlights
Three dimensional (3D) reconstruction technology is a kind of mathematical model established by computer for Three Dimensional (3D) objects
After 3D reconstruction of the two-dimensional information obtained from the routine Computed Tomography (CT)/ Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) examination of the liver by the software, surgeons can examine the volume of the liver, anatomical variation, the course of the intrahepatic vessels, the location of the tumor and its relationship with the surrounding vessels more intuitively, vividly and from multiple angles [1,2,3]
Preoperative 3D reconstruction and virtual reality (VR) technology can realize the measurement of liver volume and the implementation of simulated hepatectomy, which can further clarify the scope of surgical resection and ensure the residual liver volume and function to meet the needs of patients after operation
Summary
Three dimensional (3D) reconstruction technology is a kind of mathematical model established by computer for 3D objects. Preoperative 3D reconstruction and VR technology can realize the measurement of liver volume and the implementation of simulated hepatectomy, which can further clarify the scope of surgical resection and ensure the residual liver volume and function to meet the needs of patients after operation. 3D reconstruction and VR technology can help surgeons to optimize the operation plan, predict the possible accidents in the operation in advance, and ensure the radical resection of liver tumor.
