METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FACILITATING SURGERY USING AN AUGMENTED REALITY SYSTEM

A method for facilitating surgery using an augmented reality system, comprises retrieving patient data relating to a surgical procedure on a patient, generating virtual content comprising a virtual three-dimensional (3D) anatomical model based on the patient data, and displaying the virtual content, such that, when viewed by the first user, the virtual 3D anatomical model appears to be fixed at a physical location, whereby the virtual 3D anatomical model may be viewed by the first user from any angle or orientation merely by walking around the physical location.
