Description:
This presentation includes demonstrations of brain surgery planning software that currently is being clinically tested. The procedure employs a 3D localizer as a means of interactively transferring spatial relationships from MRI-derived 3D anatomical models directly onto the patients.
The Showcase presentation allows participants to interactively manipulate the localizer around a plastic model of a human head (or a live volunteer) and get immediate feedback in the form of a stereoscopic model.
