Visualizing major periventricular anatomical landmarks intraoperatively during brain tumor removal is a decisive measure toward preserving such structures and thus the patient's postoperative quality of life. The aim of this study was to describe potential standardized preoperative planning using standard landmarks and procedures and to demonstrate the feasibility of using augmented reality (AR) to assist in performing surgery according to these "roadmaps." The authors have depicted stepwise AR surgical roadmaps applied to periventricular brain surgery with the aim of preserving major cognitive function. In addition to the technological aspects, this study highlights the importance of using emerging technologies as potential tools to integrate information and to identify and visualize landmarks to be used during tumor removal.
在脑肿瘤切除术中，可视化主要的侧脑室解剖标志是保护这些结构和患者术后生活质量的关键措施。本研究旨在描述使用标准标志和程序进行潜在标准化术前规划的方法，并展示使用增强现实（AR）根据这些“路线图”辅助手术的可行性。作者描述了逐步应用于侧脑室脑手术的 AR 手术路线图，旨在保留主要认知功能。除了技术方面，本研究还强调了利用新兴技术作为潜在工具来整合信息以及识别和可视化在肿瘤切除过程中使用的标志的重要性。
