🧠 Redefining Neurosurgical Training Through VR & AR Technologies

Speaker: Dr. KenderMartin
University of Ostrava, Czech Republic
Session Type: Oral Presentation 
Talk Title: Virtual and Augmented Reality in Neurosurgery: Early Experiences in Education and Clinical Application

🔍 Session Insights

• Core Theme: Exploring the role of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) in advancing neurosurgical education and clinical workflows.
• Training Innovation: Use of immersive VR combined with cognitive–motor dual tasking (CMDT) to simulate complex neurosurgical procedures.
• Clinical Application: AR-assisted surgical planning, including real-time synchronization of robotic systems with VR imaging for brain and spinal surgeries.
• Educational Framework: Implementation of four VR-based neurosurgical training modules.
• Observed Benefits:
– Clearer and more detailed visualization of neuroanatomy.
– Higher learner engagement supported by instant instructor feedback.
– Accelerated skill acquisition (under ongoing evaluation).
– Potential reduction in surgical errors, enhancing patient safety (under ongoing evaluation).
• Future Impact: Highlights VR and AR as powerful tools shaping the future of neurosurgical education and operative precision.
