Image-guidance has been the mainstay for most neurosurgical procedures to aid in accuracy and precision. Developments in visualization tools have brought into existence the current microscope and even sophisticated augmented reality devices providing a human–computer interface. The current microscope poses an ergonomic challenge particularly in scenarios like sitting position. Also, the cost associated with the present microscope hinders the accessibility of micro neurosurgery in most low-to-middle-income countries.
