Abstract
Augmented reality (AR) systems and methods involve an interactive head-mounted device (HMD), an external display, and a medical image computer, which is in communication with the HMD and the external display. The external display displays one or more planes of a medical image or a 3D model provided by the medical image computer. A user wearing the HMD may manipulate a medical image or 3D model displayed on the external display by focusing the user's gaze on a control object and/or a portion of a medical image or 3D model displayed on a display of the interactive HMD.
