Area of Science:

  • Medical Simulation
  • Virtual Reality Technology
  • Surgical Training

Background:

  • Virtual reality (VR) applications with head-mounted displays (HMDs) are increasingly impacting information and multimedia technologies.
  • Laparoscopic surgery requires specialized training environments to enhance surgical skills.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the development process of a highly immersive VR simulation for laparoscopic surgery.
  • To evaluate the feasibility and user experience of a custom VR-HMD setup for surgical simulation.

Main Methods:

  • Combined a VR laparoscopy simulator (LapSim) with a VR-HMD to create a user-friendly simulation scenario.
  • Developed two VR scenarios: Artificial VR (AVR) integrating simulator output with game components, and Immersive VR (IVR) integrating simulator output with real operating room video.
  • Incorporated continuous clinical feedback throughout the development process.

Main Results:

  • Clinical feedback facilitated optimization of visualization, synchronization, and resolution in both AVR and IVR scenarios.
  • Preliminary testing indicated high user exhilaration and presence, with minimal motion sickness.
  • Technical performance of the VR simulation was comparable to the standard LapSim.

Conclusions:

  • The study provides a proof of concept for the technical feasibility of a custom, highly immersive VR-HMD setup for laparoscopic surgery simulation.
  • Further research is necessary to enhance visualization, immersion, and interaction capabilities within the virtual surgical environment.
