[Status Quo of Surgical Navigation].

Surgical navigation, also referred to as computer-assisted or image-guided surgery, is a technique that employs a variety of methods - such as 3D imaging, tracking systems, specialised software, and robotics to support surgeons during surgical interventions. These emerging technologies aim not only to enhance the accuracy and precision of surgical procedures, but also to enable less invasive approaches, with the objective of reducing complications and improving operative outcomes for patients. By harnessing the integration of emerging digital technologies, surgical navigation holds the promise of assisting complex procedures across various medical disciplines. In recent years, the field of surgical navigation has witnessed significant advances. Abdominal surgical navigation, particularly endoscopy, laparoscopic, and robot-assisted surgery, is currently undergoing a phase of rapid evolution. Emphases include image-guided navigation, instrument tracking, and the potential integration of augmented and mixed reality (AR, MR). This article will comprehensively delve into the latest developments in surgical navigation, spanning state-of-the-art intraoperative technologies like hyperspectral and fluorescent imaging, to the integration of preoperative radiological imaging within the intraoperative setting.
