Whitepaper
Setting the New Standard in Surgical Oncology with 3D Surface Modeling
Advanced 3D planning for life-changing care
Surgical oncology demands high-stakes acts, such as sparing the organ while ensuring complete tumor removal, minimizing OR time without sacrificing precision, and anticipating complications before they happen. Advanced planning with 3D surface models gives surgeons a way to interact with the anatomy before the procedure, supporting more informed planning and greater intraoperative confidence.
Backed by scientific evidence and real-world clinical use, this whitepaper examines how this technique compares with traditional visualization methods and why it's becoming an essential tool in 500+ hospitals worldwide.


What you will learn
- How 3D surface modeling differs from 2D imaging and 3D volumetric rendering
- What clinical evidence shows about 3D surface modeling's impact on surgical accuracy, time spent in the OR, and intraoperative risk in oncology
- Lessons from nearly 300 procedures using 3D surface modeling at IRCCS Ospedale Policlinico San Martino
