“…In these cases, the head‐mounted display was connected by wire to surgical endoscopes, and any video captured by the endoscope camera was sent directly to the head‐mounted display. Procedures performed included radical nephrectomy, partial gasless nephrectomy, nephroureterectomy, urethral stents, cyst removal, and diagnosis and treatment of neoplasms, such as benign prostate hyperplasia, prostatic carcinoma and urothelial carcinoma . Overall, the studies typically concluded that head‐up displays make the surgeries more efficient and easier to conduct.…”

“…Aside from VR-based simulators, there is a new trend of the development and AR applications use in urology, such as laporoscopic skills [48] and PCNL [49]. There are also few published studies about the feasibility and safety of AR-assisted urological surgery using smart glasses [50,51]. Bertolo et al [52] stressed that, based on the existing evidence, they were unable to state that AR improved the outcomes of urological interventions.…”

Background/aim: It is necessary to incorporate novel training modalities in medical education, especially in surgical fields, because of the limitations of cadaveric training. Traditional medical education has many drawbacks, such as residency working hour restrictions, patient safety conflicts with the learning needs, and the lack of hands-on workshops. The MedTRain3DModsim Project aimed to produce 3-dimensional (3D) medical printed models, simulations, and innovative applications for every level of medical training using novel worldwide technologies. It was aimed herein to improve the interdisciplinary and transnational approaches, and accumulate existing experience for medical education, postgraduate studies, and specialty training. Materials and methods: This project focused on models of solid organs and the urinary system, including the kidney, prostate, ureter, and liver. With 3D medical printing, it is possible to produce a body part from inert materials in just a few hours with the standardization of medical 3D modeling. Results: The target groups of this project included medical students and residents, graduate students from engineering departments who needed medical education and surgical training, and medical researchers interested in health technology or clinical and surgical anatomy. Conclusion: It was also intended to develop a novel imaging platform for education and training by reevaluating the existing data using new software and 3D modalities. Therefore, it was believed that our methodology could be implemented in all related medical fields.

“…Sultan (2015) defined monitoring, ease of access to medical data, and medical education as potential deployment areas for ARSGs in the healthcare industry. Borgmann et al (2017) shared the experience of a group of surgeons with ARSG during urological surgeries; glasses were efficiently used for recording videos, taking photos, teleconsultations, accessing medical records and images, and internet searches without 3-5 complication occurrence. Similar results were obtained by other researchers, in addition to which the patient privacy issue was pointed out (Armstrong et al, 2014;Moshtaghi et al, 2015;Davis and Rosenfield, 2015;Chang et al, 2016).…”

“…ARSG adoption studies generally concentrate on the need for purpose-specific applications (Armstrong et al, 2014;Moshtaghi et al, 2015;Davis and Rosenfield, 2015;Borgmann et al, 2017;Chang et al, 2016), and the ease of use issue that became evident in this research may be approached from this point of view.…”

This study explores the use of augmented reality smart glasses (ARSGs) by physicians and their adoption of these products in the Turkish medical industry. Google Glass was used as a demonstrative example for the introduction of ARSGs. We proposed an exploratory model based on the technology acceptance model by Davis. Exogenous factors in the model were defined by performing semi-structured in-depth interviews, along with the use of an expert panel in addition to the technology adoption literature. The framework was tested by means of a field study, data was collected via an Internet survey, and path analysis was used. The results indicate that there were a number of factors to be considered in order to understand ARSG adoption by physicians. Usefulness was influenced by ease of use, compatibility, ease of reminding, and speech recognition, while ease of use was affected by ease of learning, ease of medical education, external influence, and privacy. Privacy was the only negative factor that reduced the perceived ease of use, and was found to indirectly create a negative attitude. Compatibility emerged as the most significant external factor for usefulness. Developers of ARSGs should pay attention to healthcare-specific requirements for improved utilization and more extensive adoption of ARSGs in healthcare settings. In particular, they should focus on how to increase the compatibility of ARSGs. Further research needs to be conducted to explain the adoption intention of physicians.
