Patent attributes
System and method for use of mixed and augmented reality Imaging surgical suite and an augmented reality device are provided. A 2D/3D virtual grid having a head-up display with augmented reality is provided. The head-up display can display a 2D radiographic image or 3D volumetric representation or shape model of image, and can further display an augmented reality grid/indicator which can be depicted as a grid, implant, instrument or bone avatar/figure representing shapes, orientations, and positions relative to an anatomical image or model. The augmented reality indicator can be displayed directly in a surgeon's field of view to provide a live, intra-operative situational environment and navigational guidance for the surgeon. The head-up display can show avatar grids/indicators that are outside of the surgeon's field of view within a patient's body.
