An augmented reality and high-speed optical tracking system for laparoscopic surgery.
Article in Proceedings of SPIE--the International Society for Optical Engineering, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
While minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery can help reduce blood loss, reduce hospital time, and shorten recovery time compared to open surgery, it has the disadvantages of limited field of view and difficulty in locating subsurface targets. Our proposed solution applies an augmented reality (AR) system to overlay pre-operative images, such as those from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), onto the target organ in the user's real-world environment. Our system can provide critical information regarding the location of subsurface lesions to guide surgical procedures in real time. An infrared motion tracking camera system was employed to obtain real-time position data of the patient and surgical instruments. To perform hologram registration, fiducial markers were used to track and map virtual coordinates to the real world. In this study, phantom models of each organ were constructed to test the reliability and accuracy of the AR-guided laparoscopic system. Root mean square error (RMSE) was used to evaluate the targeting accuracy of the laparoscopic interventional procedure. Our results demonstrated a registration error of 2.42 ± 0.79 mm and a procedural targeting error of 4.17 ± 1.63 mm using our AR-guided laparoscopic system that will be further refined for potential clinical procedures.
