Abstract
A computer-implemented method includes: receiving, by an augmented reality device, a medical image of a surgical site, generating, by the augmented reality device, a virtual surgical site model based on the medical image; presenting, by the augmented reality device, the virtual surgical site model; receiving, by the augmented reality device, user calibration input; aligning, by the augmented reality device, the virtual surgical site model with a real-life surgical site based on the user calibration input; and displaying, by the augmented reality device and after the aligning, a virtual insertion path between an incision point and a target point to aid in inserting a tool as part of performing a surgical procedure.
