Area of Science:

  • Medical Simulation
  • Surgical Technology
  • Virtual Reality Applications

Background:

  • Previous virtual reality (VR) surgical simulation systems lacked integrated real-time visual data.
  • Surgeons and nurses require simultaneous viewing of both virtual simulations and actual surgical procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To enhance an existing VR surgical simulation system by incorporating a real-time video display.
  • To provide a comprehensive surgical training and planning tool by merging virtual and real surgical imagery.

Main Methods:

  • Integrated a solid video system into the existing VR simulation platform.
  • Developed a display system capable of showing both real and virtual surgical images on a large screen and console monitor.
  • Utilized shutter glasses for simultaneous viewing of dual-image displays.

Main Results:

  • The enhanced system successfully displays real-time surgical video alongside VR simulations.
  • The system allows for the simulation of various cancer surgeries with concurrent viewing of actual surgical footage.
  • The integrated system provides a more immersive and informative surgical visualization experience.

Conclusions:

  • The enhanced surgical conference system offers significant benefits for training less experienced surgeons and nurses.
  • The system is valuable for surgical procedure planning and medical staff education.
  • Further development is planned to address system limitations and expand future applications.
