Computer-assisted surgery and intraoperative navigation are novel tools used to enhance patient treatment and surgical safety. Computer-assisted technologies allow for optimal planning of complex surgeries in a multidisciplinary setting. 3D models can also be created from pre-chemotherapy MRI and pre-surgery CT-scan data. The surgery can then be performed in an enhanced reality modus where the tumor is visible at its initial size.
