What the studies report

  • “Between modalities, no significant differences were found; HD and RMSE were 2.95 ± 0.94 mm and 1.28 ± 0.49 mm.”

    Tsuchiya 2025 · Comparative study · n: 11 orbital fractures

  • “Virtual reality/AR technology offers significant potential in various aspects, including student education, resident evaluation, surgical planning, and overall surgical implementation.”

    Stucki 2024 · Narrative review

  • “The main results indicated that the use of MR technology in OGS led to high accuracy and time reduction as primary outcomes and cost-effectiveness and skill improvement as secondary outcomes.”

    Stevanie 2024 · Systematic review

  • “The average differences in the positioning of the condylar and fossa prosthesis are 1.252 ± 0.269 mm and 1.393 ± 0.335 mm, respectively.”
