    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Medical Education
    • Surgical Technology

    Background:

    • Laser technology is increasingly popular in neurosurgery.
    • The necessity of practical, hands-on training workshops for neurosurgeons using lasers is debated.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the value and necessity of hands-on laser workshops for neurosurgical training.
    • To assess the impact of workshops on clinical laser adoption and surgeon confidence.

    Main Methods:

    • A questionnaire was distributed to neurosurgeons who had attended a hands-on laser workshop.
    • Survey questions covered clinical laser use, influential factors, learning curves, procedure types, and educational improvements.

    Main Results:

    • Participants reported clinical use of lasers post-workshop, with varying laser types and procedures.
