What happened

Researchers created a new technique that accurately and rapidly matches X-rays captured during surgery with a patient’s preoperative 3D medical scan. This method could make it easier for clinicians to precisely pilot minimally invasive surgical tools, leading to faster and safer procedures. Clinicians perform many minimally invasive surgeries using real-time X-rays to help them steer devices like catheters and endos…
