The augmented reality head-mounted display, Magic Leap, was used in combination with a conventional navigation system to place pedicle screws in a porcine model by adhering to a novel workflow. With a median insertion time of <2.5 min, submillimeter technical accuracy and 100% clinical accuracy were achieved according to Gertzbein.
