Br J Neurosurg. 2014 Dec;28(6):819-20. doi: 10.3109/02688697.2014.931348. Epub 2014 Jun 27.

Abstract

The educational value of stereoscopic imaging in neurosurgical training has increasingly been appreciated and its use increased during the last decade. We describe a technique that we developed to acquire and reproduce intra-operative stereoscopic images.

Keywords: 3D camera; medical education; neuroanatomy; neurosurgical training; stereoscopy.
