3D holographic visualization of (intraoperative) imaging to optimize the surgical treatment of children with brain tumors


With my PhD project, we are investigating the possibilities of holography integrated with intraoperative imaging techniques in pediatric brain tumors. The extent of resection in pediatric brain tumors is related to the prognosis of the disease, which is why our neurosurgeons always try to safely remove as much tumor as possible. Because much of the anatomy changes during surgery, intraoperative imaging, such as MRI or ultrasound, can provide insight into possible remaining tumor. We are investigating whether using 3D models of this imaging helps to better understand the constantly changing intraoperative anatomy.
