Researchers have developed X-GuideAR, an augmented reality framework designed to reduce radiation exposure during orthopedic surgeries that require fluoroscopic guidance. The system generates synthetic X-ray previews to help surgeons identify optimal views and drilling trajectories, thereby minimizing the need for actual X-rays. In a preliminary study, X-GuideAR demonstrated a significant reduction in X-ray usage and showed potential for improved screw placement accuracy. AI
IMPACT Potential to improve surgical safety and efficiency by reducing radiation exposure and enhancing precision.
