The Augmented Intervention Assistant is a head-mounted display system designed to simplify image-guided surgery. It combines preoperational images with the position tracking of instruments, the operating field and the surgeon to augment the physician’s field of view with virtual information. A built-in augmented reality interface provides additional information, such as patient anatomy, position of tumor tissues and preoperational planning.
