This viewpoint explores the concept of 4D holographic visualization in gastrointestinal endoscopy and discusses its potential implications from a medical informatics perspective. Current endoscopic practice relies primarily on 2D image displays, requiring operators to mentally reconstruct 3D spatial relationships and temporal changes in a dynamic and deformable anatomical environment. The aim of this viewpoint is to present a conceptual framework that reframes endoscopic visualization as a spatiotemporal information integration problem rather than solely a display problem. We discuss how future visualization systems may integrate spatial and temporal information to support externalized representations of anatomy, endoscope configuration, and procedural dynamics in a shared clinical environment. Potential applications include endoscopic navigation, training, and collaborative procedures. We further discuss key technical and clinical considerations, including information integration, registration stability, real-time responsiveness, workflow compatibility, and uncertainty associated with reconstructed information. This viewpoint highlights spatiotemporal information integration as a central challenge in the development of next-generation visualization systems for gastrointestinal endoscopy.

최근 의료계에서 3D 이미징 기술이 수술 성공률을 획기적으로 높이고 있습니다. 단순히 정밀한 사진을 보는 단계를 넘어, 실제 장기의 구조를 입체적으로 구현하여 집도의가 수술 전 과정을 시뮬레이션할 수 있게 된 덕분입니다. 복잡한 심장 수술에서 3D 기술이 어떤 방식으로 환자의 생명을

Fourteen-year-old Molly Johnston from Moncton, New Brunswick, has recently recovered from spinal surgery to treat her scoliosis, becoming the first patient in Canada to benefit from an updated 3D imaging machine at the IWK Health Centre in Halifax. The improved technology, called the O-arm, allows surgeons to scan a patient’s entire spine in a single pass, improving surgical accuracy and reducing the risk of complications. One of the key updates is a paediatric radiation setting, which decreases radiation exposure by 70 per cent. Molly, who has continued dancing despite her scoliosis, experienced significant discomfort before the surgery, including fatigue and back pain. Her mother, Marsha Johnston, expressed relief and confidence in the new technology. Post-surgery, Molly noticed immediate physical changes, including an increase in height, and is now progressing well in her recovery. She hopes to return to school soon and looks forward to dancing again in the fall. Dr. Kevin Morash, one of her orthopedic surgeons, highlighted that while the machine primarily supports scoliosis and paediatric spine surgeries, it has also been used in paediatric pelvic procedures. The introduction of this advanced imaging technology at the IWK Health Centre marks an important step forward for surgical care and patient safety in Canada.

3D imaging creates a simulation of what a patient's breasts may look like after surgery. Patients can keep these pictures with them to get used to the upcoming change.
