3D magnetic seed localization for augmented reality in surgery

ConclusionTracking the magnetic detection probe allows 3D localization of a magnetic seed, which opens doors for augmented reality target visualization during surgery. Such an approach should enhance the perception of the localized region of interest during the intervention, especially for breast tumor resection where magnetic seeds can already be used in the protocol.
