چکیده

The World Wide Web has grown to be a huge pool for exchanging information and services. Indeed it has become a framework for distributed computing applications, with user interface provided through a web browser. It has potential in particular for distributed simulation applications, providing world wide access to training systems. In this paper we will report results from our prototype web-based virtual reality simulation system which aims to train surgeons on endovascular procedures. The paper discusses features of the current technology that can support or limit the implementation of this type of application.

Identification of skills common to renal and iliac endovascular procedures performed on a virtual reality simulator.

INTRODUCTION There is a learning curve in the acquisition of endovascular skills for the treatment of vascular disease. Integration of Virtual reality (VR) simulator based training into the educational training curriculum offers a potential solution to overcome this learning curve. However evidence-based training curricula that define which tasks, how often and in which order they should be per...
