  • Title: Computer-assisted three-dimensional surgical planning and simulation: 3D virtual osteotomy.
    Author: Xia J, Ip HH, Samman N, Wang D, Kot CS, Yeung RW, Tideman H.
    Journal: Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 2000 Feb; 29(1):11-7. PubMed ID: 10691136.
    Abstract:
    A computer-assisted three-dimensional virtual osteotomy system for orthognathic surgery (CAVOS) is presented. The virtual reality workbench is used for surgical planning. The surgeon immerses in a virtual reality environment with stereo eyewear, holds a virtual "scalpel" (3D Mouse) and operates on a "real" patient (3D visualization) to obtain pre-surgical prediction (3D bony segment movements). Virtual surgery on a computer-generated 3D head model is simulated and can be visualized from any arbitrary viewing point in a personal computer system.
