Using 3D models to improve surgical planning for lung and colorectal surgeries.
A Retrospective Multicenter Study for Intuitive 3D Models (I3DM), During Simulated Preoperative Surgical Planning for Anatomic Lung Resection and Lower Anterior Resection Procedures
This study is testing if using 3D models along with regular scans can help doctors plan lung and colorectal surgeries better for their patients.

What this trial studies
This observational study evaluates the effectiveness of integrating 3D models with 2D CT/MRI scans in preoperative surgical planning for thoracic and colorectal procedures. It focuses on simulated planning for anatomic lung resections, including segmentectomy and lobectomy, as well as Lower Anterior Resection (LAR). By analyzing DICOM images from patients who have undergone these procedures, the study aims to assess how 3D modeling can enhance surgical outcomes and decision-making.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates are individuals aged 18 and older who have had anatomic lung resection or Lower Anterior Resection procedures.
Not a fit: Patients who have not undergone the specified surgical procedures or are under 18 years old may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could lead to improved surgical precision and outcomes for patients undergoing lung and colorectal surgeries.
How similar studies have performed: While the use of 3D modeling in surgical planning is gaining traction, this specific approach remains relatively novel and has not been extensively tested in prior studies.
