A new virtual reality system might be the key in getting surgeons prepared for the operating table.

The typical surgical training involves: reading textbooks, watching videos, practicing on plastic models or cadavers and assisting in real operations. But this isn’t enough sometimes. According to a study, more than 30 percent of US trainee surgeons are unable to perform operations without oversight by the time they graduate. Virtual reality (VR) practice could be a solution.
