Objective: Preclinical studies suggest that robotic carotid artery stenting (CAS) could be superior to manual CAS. However, very limited comparative data exist for patients who have undergone robotic versus manual CAS. In addition, no data exist comparing the costs of manual and robotic CAS.

- - Extended reality (XR), which includes augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR), has significant potential in endovascular neurosurgery, particularly for improving training and understanding of complex cerebrovascular imaging.
- - A systematic review identified 19 studies, revealing that VR was the most utilized modality for educational purposes, primarily for simulation and anatomical modeling, while AR was used for live guidance and MR for modeling and teaching during operations.
- - The use of VR and MR in anatomical education provides detailed, patient-specific 3-D models, enhancing the learning experience; however, there are challenges like inaccurate tracking of surgical tools that need to be addressed for effective implementation in training.
Article Synopsis
- * The WEB has significantly more citations (mean 35.6) compared to other intrasaccular flow disruptors (mean 4.24), with most studies being retrospective reviews and a noticeable lack of contributions from African authors.
- * The analysis highlights that leading countries in WEB research (like France) differ from those contributing to other flow disruptors (like Germany), indicating a skew in global research collaboration and production, primarily concentrated in Europe and North America.
