Abstract:
With the rapid development of artificial intelligence and deep learning,virtual reality(VR)and augmented reality(AR)technologies have been widely used in the medical field with their unique advantages.Despite the rapid advances of techniques in colorectal surgery,the risk of colorectal surgery remained high due to the complexity of colorectal anatomy,and the burden of postoperative symptoms remained high.VR and AR technologies can help overcome some of these challenges.The application of VR and AR in colorectal surgery was reviewed,including education and training,surgical assistance,patient education,symptom management,etc.,in order to provide references for clinical application of VR and AR in colorectal surgery.
