Virtual Surgery
2007
Virtual doctors and virtual scalpels have begun to save people's lives. New technology has arrived and it is VIRTUAL SURGERY. Many college universities have begun to allow their students to practice surgery through virtual technology. If you have played any of the flight simulator computer games then you probably know a little bit about virtual simulation games. Just like the flight simulator games teach people like you and I what it is like to fly a plane the virtual surgery simulators teach people what it is like to perform surgery. Of course it is not exactly what it would be in a hospital. The virtual surgery simulator is a good training tool for universities to use for their students.
