Figure 1
Augmented reality can simplify vascular access. The patients' CT scan is reconstructed with a proprietary software (Articor, Artiness SRL, Milano, Italy) to generate 3D holograms, that can be moved to the hybrid room and visualized with commercial holographic viewers (Hololens 2, Microsoft Inc, Redmonds, Washington, US). (A) The patients' arterial tree is seen through the transparent skin surface. (B, C) Different layers can be visualized or removed, to analyze different aspects of the vascular access (size, tortuosity, calcifications). (D) A dedicated tool can be used to simulate vascular access.
