Microscopic augmented reality calibration with contactless line-structured light registration for surgical navigation.

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
The use of AR technology in image-guided neurosurgery enables visualization of lesions that are concealed deep within the brain. Accurate AR registration is required to precisely match virtual lesions with anatomical structures displayed under a microscope. The purpose of this work was to develop a real-time augmented surgical navigation system using contactless line-structured light registration, microscope calibration, and visible optical tracking. Contactless discrete sparse line-structured light point cloud is utilized to construct patient-image registration. Microscope calibration optimization with dimensional invariant calibrator is employed to enable real-time tracking of the microscope. The visible optical tracking integrates a 3D medical model with surgical microscope video in real time, generating an augmented microscope stream. The proposed patient-image registration algorithm yielded an average root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.78 ± 0.14 mm. The pixel match ratio error (PMRE) of the microscope calibration was found to be 0.646%. The RMSE and PMRE of the system experiments are 0.79 ± 0.10 mm and 3.30 ± 1.08%, respectively. Experimental evaluations confirmed the feasibility and efficiency of microscope AR surgical navigation (MASN) registration. By means of registration technology, MASN overlays virtual lesions onto the microscopic view of the real lesions in real time, which can help surgeons to localize lesions hidden deep in tissue.
