Vision Pro was successfully used during a surgical procedure
In September, a team of surgeons from the University of California, San Diego, performed more than 20 surgeries with minimal invasion using the Apple Vision Pro. The head of the medical team, Santiago Horgan, had previously tried Google Glass and Microsoft HoloLens, but they were not suitable due to the low resolution of the screens.
Horgan was able to test the Vision Pro even before the official release, and once the doctor received approval from the hospital's ethics committee, he performed surgery to remove an esophageal hernia. The headset was then used by other members of the team, including assistants and nurses. Despite the unusual conditions of the operation, not a single patient refused the intervention.
The main advantage of Vision Pro is to facilitate the surgeon's work. During the operation, he needs to monitor the patient's vital signs, diagnostic images and endoscope images of internal organs. This data is on different monitors, which confuses surgeons and they are more likely to make mistakes.
Horgan believes that in the future, Vision Pro surgeries will become the gold standard, increasing patient survival rates and success rates.
