Abstract
According to an embodiment of the inventive concept, a method for matching an actual surgical image and a 3D-based virtual surgical simulation environment, which is performed by an apparatus, includes setting POI information during surgery at each of surgery steps in a pre-stored surgical image obtained by performing surgery the same as the actual surgical image, matching the POI information with a virtual pneumoperitoneum model of a patient, which is used for the 3D-based virtual surgical simulation environment, the virtual pneumoperitoneum model being displayed on a UI, recognizing a real-time surgery step of the actual surgical image and determining a location of the POI information for the respective recognized surgery step, and obtaining and displaying image information, which is captured by moving a location of an endoscope inserted into the virtual pneumoperitoneum model to the same location as the determined location of the POI information, through the UI.
