Virtual Reality Lab
The Virtual Reality Lab employs gaming theory to teach surgical and interventional competencies via self-directed training.
Augmenting Skills Training
Advances in computerized skills trainers for surgical, invasive and non-invasive procedures have created momentum for the use of these devices within medical curricula. Typically used for training at the graduate medical education level, these training devices are characterized by internal tutorials and feedback algorithms, allowing for learners to proceed at their own individual pace.
Lab Arrangement
