How do augmented reality and virtual reality contribute to cancer surgery?
Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) technologies are increasingly being integrated into cancer surgery. AR overlays digital information onto the surgeon’s view of the real world, enhancing their ability to navigate complex anatomical structures and identify tumor margins. VR provides immersive simulations for surgical training and preoperative planning. These technologies improve surgical accuracy, reduce the risk of errors, and enhance the overall learning experience for medical professionals.
