Virtual Reality-guided radiofrequency ablation for hepatocellular carcinoma: Preoperative three-dimensional visualization for ensuring safer procedure
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) requires precise electrode placement to achieve complete tumor coverage [1]. Extended reality technologies have recently been introduced in various procedures, yet their application in interventional hepatology remains unexplored. We describe virtual reality (VR)-guided preoperative planning for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) RFA (Video S1).
