Low-Cost 3-Dimensional Modeling in Thoracic Surgery: Bridging the Technology Gap

Background: Thoracic surgery is complex in low-income countries due to limited imaging.Traditional 2-dimensional scans often yield unforeseen issues, impairing precision.Methods: We introduced 3-dimensional modeling with open-source tools and remotely delivered training.Results: Precision has greatly improved, but high costs and some training gaps remain. Conclusion:
