Virtual Patient

A high-tech virtual reality simulator for training and planning purposes in the field of minimal invasive surgery. The anatomical scene consists of a complete set of virtual organs simulated on a PC. A powerful force feedback device provides the surgeon with a very realistic feeling of the interaction between organs and surgical instruments. Surgeons can therefore not only see, but also feel actions they perform during a surgical procedure. In the near future, medical imaging devices can be directly used to provide the simulator with 3D organ data of a patient to be operated. This will allow training of sophisticated procedures before actual operations. The Virtual Patient will be commercially available from June 2001.
