Abstract The development of digital intelligent diagnostic and treatment technology has opened countless new opportunities for liver surgery from the era of digital anatomy to a new era of digital diagnostics, virtual surgery simulation and using the created scenarios in real-time surgery using mixed reality. In this article, we described our experience on developing a dedicated 3 dimensional visualization and reconstruction software for surgeons to be used in advanced liver surgery and living donor liver transplantation. Furthermore, we shared the recent developments in the field by explaining the outreach of the software from virtual reality to augmented reality and mixed reality.
