Brief Summary

Multimodal intraoperative minimal-invasive (laparoscopic or robotic) liver surgery images will be registered to each other. Explicitly, these are the ultrasound and laparoscope images. Once they are registered, they will reveal the hidden tumor's location to the surgeon in real time through augmented reality. The intraoperative augmentation will also be enriched with the preoperative data (e.g., CT or MRI). This will simplify minimal invasive liver surgery, improve surgical safety and accuracy. It will also shorten hospital stays and contribute to an overall better quality of life for the patient, which in return will reduce the health-care costs.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients undergoing hepatectomy; * Patients for whom good-quality imaging is available (CT scan and/or MRI and/or ultrasound); * Patients over 18 years of age; * Minimally invasive surgery by conventional or robot-assisted laparoscopy. Exclusion Criteria: * Surgery by laparotomy
