Technical advancements of the past decade have led to massive improvements regarding imaging and visualization in trauma care. Digital imaging technology has fundamentally changed most processes in fracture management. However, the digital revolution in trauma surgery has just begun. Optical tracking navigation is currently the gold standard for positioning of implants for advanced applications in trauma surgery. Digital technology may enable the surgeon to achieve the same level of safety even in non-navigated placement of screws: We developed a new planning tool to transcript a preoperative into a semi-transparent "fluoroscopic like" image that can be identified intraoperatively and used as a map for the safe placement of sacro-iliac screws based on the "vestibule concept". In the future, development of artificial intelligence algorithms may provide features like automated segmentation of bone-fragments and other applications for a systematic fracture analysis to improve the standard of care in trauma surgery. Digital transformation has massive impact on diagnostics and surgical management of pelvic fractures. Improved visualization technology provides a better understanding of the surgical anatomy of the pelvis and may enable the surgeon to achieve greatest safety in percutaneous placement of screws even without using optical tracking navigation tools. The "para-axial fusion technique" is a useful tool to plan fluoroscopic views based on a 3D dataset prior to the surgery. (C) 2022 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier Ltd.
