A Novel Surgeon Training System for the Vascular Interventional Surgery based on Augmented Reality

Abstract

At present, cerebrovascular disease has become the number one killer of human health, and minimally invasive interventional surgery is the main treatment. In order to solve the problem of radiation to doctors, master-slave surgical robot is favored. Even so, vascular interventional surgery has high requirements on the operation of doctors, and the actual modeling and training costs are high. The research of vascular interventional surgeon training system based on virtual reality technology is becoming more and more important. The quality of a training system depends on whether it can provide a realistic training environment. In the past, most of the researches mainly focused on the reality of touch, such as the simulation of the force on the guide wire in the blood vessel, but less on the human-computer interaction. A good human-computer interaction can also improve the doctor's operation experience and effect. To solve this problem, this paper built a training system based on augmented reality technology, and proposed gesture interaction to replace the traditional interaction. Through experiments, the system can satisfy the greater operational needs of doctors and improve the training effect.
