Abstract
Virtual Reality (VR) is a widespread topic not only in computer graphics but also in many other fields. In this paper, virtual reality and Augmented Reality (AR) in medicine especially in virtual surgery is taken into consideration. This survey consists of a systematic collection of existing methods and techniques for virtual surgery using Augmented Reality. The motive for doing this study was the current stage of AR technology in virtual surgery. To figure out such problem, this study attempts to critically review the application and limitation of well-known methods to provide researchers with backgrounds on outdated and latest AR technologies in virtual surgery. In this study widely used styles, which have been employed in virtual surgery, is classified and systemized. The direction that each subject is going is introduced. We hope that this study could help researchers to figure out what stage are the current AR researches not only in virtual surgery but also in other parts of medicine.
