Session Description
Mixed Reality (MR) is emerging as a powerful tool in orthopaedic oncology for surgical planning, anatomical understanding, and precision-guided resections. A critical step for its meaningful clinical use is the accurate registration of a holographic 3D model onto real-world anatomy or patient-specific 3D-printed models.
This workshop will provide participants with a practical understanding of how MR registration works and its specific applications in orthopaedic oncology. Through a step-by-step demonstration and hands-on experience, participants will learn how to align holographic tumor and bone models onto physical 3D-printed replicas, visualize planned resection planes, and assess cutting jig positioning.
The session will emphasize how MR can improve spatial understanding of complex oncologic anatomy, facilitate multidisciplinary case discussions, and enhance both surgical accuracy and education.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Understand the principles of Mixed Reality registration and spatial alignment.
- Perform a basic workflow for registering a holographic model onto a 3D-printed anatomical model and through this to the patient.
- Recognize the role of MR in improving anatomical understanding in complex orthopaedic oncology cases.
- Understand how MR can assist in planning and validating resection planes and cutting jig positioning.
- Explore the educational value of MR for case-based learning, anatomy teaching, and multidisciplinary discussions.
