Abstract

BACKGROUND: With the decrease in the number of cerebral aneurysms treated surgically and the increase of complexity of those treated surgically, there is a need for simulation-based tools to teach future neurosurgeons the operative techniques of aneurysm clipping. OBJECTIVE: To develop and evaluate the usefulness of a new haptic-based virtual reality simulator in the training of neurosurgical res…
