Sažetak
The real-time requirement means that the simulation must be able to follow the actions of the user that may be moving in the virtual environment. The computer system must also store in its memory a 3D model of the virtual environment (3D-CAS models). In that case a real-time VR system will update the 3D graphical visualization as the user moves, so that up-to-date visualization is always shown on the computer screen. Upon the completion of the tele-operation, the surgeon compares the preoperative and postoperative images and models of the operative field, and studies video records of the procedure itself. Using intraoperative records, animated images of the real tele-procedure performed can be designed. VS offers the possibility of preoperative planning in rhinology. The intraoperative use of computer in real time requires development of appropriate hardware and software to connect medical instrumentarium with the computer, and to operate the computer by thus connected instrumentarium and sophisticated multimedia interfaces.
