SESSION 2: HANDS-ON WORKSHOP
3D Planification & Anatomy Exploration
Two simultaneous stations will run in parallel:
Station A – 3D model creation
Guided hands-on session on how to create a 3D model from CT data.
Station B – Anatomy exploration using 3D reconstruction models
Participants will study segmental anatomy on pre-built 3D models with faculty guidance.
Participants will rotate between the stations, with approximately 45 minutes per session. A short debrief with the tutor will be held at the end of each rotation.
Five technologies to explore:
- Fujifilm: Synapse 3D
- Infervision: InferOperate Suite
- Materialise: Mimics for Thoracic Surgery
- Surgical Reality: Lung Viewer
- Visible Patient: Visible Patient Lab / VP Planning
12:00 – 13:00
Lunch Break – Visit of exhibitors
13:00 – 17:10
SESSION 3: SEGMENTECTOMY STEP-BY-STEP
3D Anatomy & Surgical Video
13:00 – 13:45
Hands-On Workshop: Simple Segments
Participants will explore 3D reconstructions of S4+5 (lingula), S6, the basal pyramid, S1+2, and the culmen using interactive platforms. Anatomical variations are intentionally embedded within the models for participants to identify and discuss with tutors.
