Technologies for providing assistance to a surgeon during a surgical procedure are disclosed. An example method includes identifying a medical condition of a patient and recommending surgical procedures for treatment. An optimal surgical procedure is then determined based on correlations between the medical condition of the patient and outcomes of previous surgical procedures for other patients previously suffering from the medical condition. A 3D model of the patient may be created using current images of an affected area of the patient. Successively, a surgeon is trained using a Virtual Reality simulation. During the training, the surgeon may be allowed to provide annotations. Further, the recommended surgical procedures are based on medical data of the patient, including medical images. Surgical paths are retrieved for addressing the surgical need of the patient, and the surgical paths may be overlaid on image segments, for display for the surgeon. A surgical path is selected from the surgical paths, a surgical step belonging to the surgical path is selected, and an image segment selected from the image segments, based on the surgeons inputs is used to create the surgical plan.
