Virtual reality tumor navigated robotic radical prostatectomy by using three‐dimensional reconstructed multiparametric prostate MRI and ⁶⁸Ga‐PSMA PET/CT images: A useful tool to guide the robotic surgery?

Abstract

3D reconstructed VR models by using mpMRI and Ga68 PSMA-PET/CT images can be accurately prepared and effectively applied during RARP that might be a useful tool for tumor navigation. Images show prostate tumors and anatomy and might be a guide for the console surgeon. This is promising new technology that needs further study and validation.
