Description
Summary:➤ Extended reality is a term that encompasses different modalities, including virtual reality, augmented reality, and mixed reality. ➤ Although fully immersive virtual reality has benefits for developing procedural memory and technical skills, augmented and mixed reality are more appropriate modalities for preoperative planning and intraoperative utilization. ➤ Current investigations on the role of extended reality in preoperative planning and intraoperative utilization are still in the early stages, but preliminarily show that extended reality technologies can help surgeons to be more accurate and efficient.
