Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop and verify an intraoperative module for supporting navigated biopsy procedures using optical see-through head-mounted display (HMD). Methods: Biopsy procedure including entry and endpoints of needle insertion was planned preoperatively having regard to the resection region segmentation and safety margin definition. Biopsy procedures were performed by two users using an intraoperative optical navigation module on a specially prepared brain phantom. Two visualization techniques were compared: an accurate augmented reality one, where a virtual plan is superimposed onto surgical field by using optical see-through HMD together with personalized calibration method and visualization on the external display. Results: Averaged errors from 24 trials using external display were 2.04 ± 0.83 mm for the first user and 2.69 ± 1.11 mm for the second one, while applying HMD 2.50 ± 0.93 mm (the first user) and 2.17 ± 0.82 mm (the second user), respectively. Conclusions: Proper usage of HMD visualization preceded by the personalized calibration allows the user to perform navigated biopsy procedure with comparable accuracy to its equivalent with the external display. Additionally, augmented reality visualization improves ergonomics and enables focusing on the surgical field without losing a direct line of sight with the field of view as it happens for external displays. However, ensuring high accuracy of augmented reality visualization still requires proper calibration and some user experience, which is challenging.

Purpouse: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a single session of head-mounted display virtual reality on postural stability in elderly women. Methods: Forty-seven female subjects underwent a 20-minute virtual reality session. The mean age of the subjects was 70.12 years. As an immersive source, we used a relaxing virtual reality game with a head-mounted display device. The postural stability test was conducted using a Nintendo Wii force plate. Participants completed a set of three 30-s trials in which they took a quiet bipedal eyes-open stance while standing on a hard surface: before the virtual reality session, immediately after the virtual reality session, and 2 minutes after the virtual reality session. Centre of pressure parameters were analysed in the sagittal and frontal planes. Results: Analysing the results obtained immediately after the virtual reality session, significant differences were observed in almost all examined parameters. In the sagittal plane, centre of pressure path velocity increased by 10% (p < 0.01) and path standard deviation by 15% (p < 0.05). In the frontal plane, centre of pressure path velocity increased by 14% (p < 0.01). After 2 minutes, all examined parameters showed no significant difference compared to before the virtual reality session. Conclusions: Immediately after the virtual reality session, there was an increase in almost all examined parameters. However, after 2 minutes, all examined parameters had returned to baseline. Therefore, to reduce fall risk after a virtual reality session, it is recommended that the subject spend at least 2 minutes in a sitting position.
