Abstract

The advent of mixed reality (MR) has revolutionized human activities on a daily basis, striving for augmenting professional and social interactions at all levels. In medicine, MR tools have been developed and tested at an increasing rate over the years, playing a promising role in assisting physicians while improving patient care. In this chapter, the authors present their initial experience in introducing different MR algorithms in routine clinical practice from their implementation in several neurosurgical procedures to their use during the COVID-19 pandemic. A general summary of the current literature on MR in medicine has also been reported.
