description Augmented reality (AR) technology is revolutionizing spine surgery, offering unprecedented intraoperative image guidance and enhancing patient safety, particularly in complex procedures. This presentation explores the expanding applications of AR in spinal surgery, highlighting recent technological advances that have transformed surgical practices. In addition to improving surgical precision and accuracy, AR provides real-time visualization of critical anatomical structures, aiding in navigation and decision-making during intricate spinal procedures.   This presentation will delve into the benefits that AR brings compared to classical techniques, including enhanced visualization, improved spatial awareness, and reduced radiation exposure for both patients and surgical teams. By overlaying virtual information onto the surgeon’s view of the patient, AR facilitates a more intuitive understanding of complex spinal anatomy and pathology, leading to optimized surgical outcomes.   Furthermore, this session will cover the diverse applications of AR in a range of spinal conditions operated in Royal Hallamshire Hospital, Sheffield, UK - including spinal tumors, calcified disc herniation, spinal CSF-venous fistula etc.   By showcasing the benefits of AR technology across various pathologies, this presentation aims to underscore its transformative potential in advancing spinal surgical care.
