论文摘要
先天性心脏病(CHD)的先进手术程序需要在手术之前进行精确计划。常规方法利用3D打印和切割物理心脏模型,这是时间和资源密集型过程。尽管增强现实(AR)技术的快速进步有可能简化外科手术计划,但有限的研究有限地评估了与医学专家的AR方法。本文向来自亚特兰大儿童医疗保健(Choa)心脏中心的6位专家,4位心胸外科医生和2位心脏病专家进行了评估,以验证一种原型的Mobile AR外科手术计划应用程序Cardiacar的可用性和技术创新。还提出了基于用户反馈的未来改进,以进一步改善心脏的设计并扩大其访问权限。
Advanced surgical procedures for congenital heart diseases (CHDs) require precise planning before the surgeries. The conventional approach utilizes 3D-printing and cutting physical heart models, which is a time and resource intensive process. While rapid advances in augmented reality (AR) technologies have the potential to streamline surgical planning, there is limited research that evaluates such AR approaches with medical experts. This paper presents an evaluation with 6 experts, 4 cardiothoracic surgeons, and 2 cardiologists, from Children's Healthcare of Atlanta (CHOA) Heart Center to validate the usability and technical innovations of CardiacAR, a prototype mobile AR surgical planning application. Potential future improvements based on user feedback are also proposed to further improve the design of CardiacAR and broaden its access.
