Augmented reality in 3D laparoscopic liver surgery with landmark-based registration technique is feasible with only little impact on the intraoperative workflow. The benefit for detecting particularly vanishing lesions is high. For an additional benefit during the resection process, registration accuracy has to be improved and non-rigid registration algorithms will be required to address intraoperative anatomical deformation.
