They showed to provide accurate anatomical details, improve operative time and patient safety by reducing complications. Over the last years, several useful models have been developed and proposed. However, literature is still scant regarding if and how the experience of the operator, and the learning curve, may impact the accuracy and precision of the model. In this light, the aim of the study is to evaluate the accuracy, the interpersonal variability of the precision and the learning curve for the segmentation of RAPN 3D preoperative models starting from CT images. This study will identify the influence of operator experience and learning curves on the accuracy of 3D preoperative models in RAPN, optimizing workflows for broader clinical adoption.Keywords: 3D surgery, RAPN, three-dimensional, virtual model, nephrectomy |
