In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

As part of a feasibility study, it's planned to use a 3D virtual mixed reality model with prostate cancer patients who show signs of lymph node metastasis and are scheduled for surgery. The model is based on PSMA PET imaging performed prior to surgery and will be evaluated by surgeons, the surgical team, and patients as part of the consultation process. First, the researcher investigates whether the removal of lymph node metastases has improved compared to the data in the literature . In addition, the study examines how the 3D model influences the movement of surgical instruments and the efficiency of surgical removal of lymph node metastases. To this end, the analyzed recorded video and position data of the instruments used during procedures performed with a surgical robot. It's also an aim to develop two methods-using landmarks and visual position tracking-for more targeted navigation
