Abstract: Augmented Reality is a technology where a virtual image is displayed on top of the real-world environment usually achieved through the use of specialized eyewear. Therefore, this project aims to develop an Augmented Reality (AR) solution for displaying brain tumors as an overlay during the surgical process of oncological neurosurgeries. Its purpose is to assist neurosurgeons in procedures such as brain biopsies, by visualizing the affected area that must be biopsied from the patient’s brain with ease and precision, allowing doctors to complete surgery in less time and with less invasive methods to the patient, providing a more comfortable experience. Currently, this is achieved through neuronavigation systems, which display the imaging of the patient’s brain in two-dimensional deconstructed planes on a screen, usually located beside the patient or, at times, in separate imaging support rooms. By utilizing AR, the surgeon can visualize the tumor directly on the patient body through a virtual 3D model, without having to refer back to the 2D images constantly. The project was developed on Microsoft Hololens, a specialized AR eyewear, with the use of Unity, a game engine that is largely used for 3D environment development and uses a DICOM file as input, which is converted into a 3D object that is displayed through the eyewear.
