dc.description.abstractOBJECTIVE A comprehensive understanding of microsurgical neuroanatomy, familiarity with the operating room environment, patient positioning in relation to the surgery, and knowledge of surgical approaches is crucial in neurosurgical education. However, challenges such as limited patient exposure, heightened patient safety concerns, a decreased availability of surgical cases during training, and difficulties in accessing cadavers and laboratories have adversely impacted this education. Three-dimensional (3D) models and augmented reality (AR) applications can be utilized to depict the cortical and white matter anatomy of the brain, create virtual models of patient surgical positions, and simulate the operating room and neuroanatomy laboratory environment. Herein, the authors, who used a single application, aimed to demonstrate the creation of 3D models of anatomical cadaver dissections, surgical approaches, patient surgical positions, and operating room and laboratory designs as alternative educational materials for neurosurgical training. METHODS A 3D modeling application (Scaniverse) was employed to generate 3D models of cadaveric brain specimens and surgical approaches using photogrammetry. It was also used to create virtual representations of the operating room and laboratory environment, as well as the surgical positions of patients, by utilizing light detection and ranging (LiDAR) sensor technology for accurate spatial mapping. These virtual models were then presented in AR for educational purposes. RESULTS Virtual representations in three dimensions were created to depict cadaver specimens, surgical approaches, patient surgical positions, and the operating room and laboratory environment. These models offer the flexibility of rotation and movement in various planes for improved visualization and understanding. The operating room and laboratory environment were rendered in three dimensions to create a simulation that could be navigated using AR and mixed reality technology. Realistic cadaveric models with intricate details were showcased on internet-based platforms and AR platforms for enhanced visualization and learning. CONCLUSIONS The utilization of this cost-effective, straightforward, and readily available approach to generate 3D models has the potential to enhance neuroanatomical and neurosurgical education. These digital models can be easily stored and shared via the internet, making them accessible to neurosurgeons worldwide for educational purposes. © AANS 2024, except where prohibited by US.
