This paper presents a detailed review of the applications of augmented reality (AR) in three
important fields where AR use is currently increasing. The objective of this study is to …

Registration of pre-and intra-interventional data is one of the key technologies for image-
guided radiation therapy, radiosurgery, minimally invasive surgery, endoscopy, and …

Minimally invasive surgery represents one of the main evolutions of surgical techniques
aimed at providing a greater benefit to the patient. However, minimally invasive surgery …

Upon publication almost 15 years ago, the first edition almost instantly became a trusted
reference, setting the stage for the coming decade, in which the explosion in research and …

Pre-operative imaging has been used earlier to guide traditional surgical navigation
