Surgeons in Bremen, Germany were able to use their iPad to
create a virtual, three-dimensional plan for their patient’s tricky
procedure. They created a scan of the patient’s liver prior to
surgery, then, when they opened their patient up, took a picture
of the liver. They then used an app to overlay their surgery plan
atop the pulsing, throbbing, doubtlessly squirting organ. The
surgeons say that it allowed them to avoid potential
complications by having the layout of the liver visible before
surgery had even begun. It lead to a more efficient operation.
And it’s not just good for livers, either: the team behind the app
says it could also be used to remove tumors from other organs.
