This is a surgical video that sheds light on the utility of a new imaging modality GLOW800 (Leica Microsystems, Wetzlar, Germany) in resection of vascular tumors. We describe the surgical resection of posterior fossa hemangioblastoma in 2 different patients after informed consent was obtained. In the first case no intraoperative angiographic imaging was used, while in the second case GLOW800 was used. Because of its ability to overlay the augmented reality view on the surgical field, it allowed for localization of highly vascular tumors as seen in the second patient. In addition, it helped in the confirmation of complete resection of the lesion. Another advantage of GLOW800 was that it allowed safe resection of the lesion in and around highly eloquent areas with a narrow surgical corridor (Video 1).

Department of Automation, "Dunarea de Jos" University of Galati, 800008 Galati, Romania.
This paper deals with a "digital twin" (DT) approach for processing, reprocessing, and scrapping (P/R/S) technology running on a modular production system (MPS) assisted by a mobile cyber-physical robotic system (MCPRS). The main hardware architecture consists of four line-shaped workstations (WSs), a wheeled mobile robot (WMR) equipped with a robotic manipulator (RM) and a mobile visual servoing system (MVSS) mounted on the end effector. The system architecture integrates a hierarchical control system where each of the four WSs, in the MPS, is controlled by a Programable Logic Controller (PLC), all connected via Profibus DP to a central PLC.

Apple Vision Pro-guided Laparoscopic Radio Frequency Ablation for Liver Tumors: The Pioneer Experience.
Surg Innov
January 2025
Department of Surgery, Show Chwan Memorial Hospital, Changhua, Taiwan.
This study evaluates the feasibility of Apple Vision Pro goggles as an augmented reality (AR) surgical navigation tool for laparoscopic-assisted ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of liver tumors. Traditional RFA is effective but challenging due to the integration of multiple imaging modalities. The primary aim of this research is to assess how Vision Pro goggles can enhance the surgical navigation process during RFA, improving tumor localization and the overall effectiveness of the procedure.

Diffractive optical elements (DOEs) are specialized optical components that manipulate light through diffraction for various applications, including holography, spectroscopy, augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), and light detection and ranging (LiDAR). The performance of DOEs is highly determined by fabricated materials and fabrication methods, in addition to the numerical simulation design. This paper presents a microfabrication technique optimized for DOEs, enabling precise control of critical parameters, such as refractive index (RI) and thickness.
