Abstract:

Surgical operations must be preformed by skilled and qualified personnel. Training is therefore of paramount importance to master enough skill to succeeds in the tasks without endangering the health of the patients. Combining different types of training activities, can help reaching the goal in a quicker and more effective way.

In this scenario, Virtual Reality represents an interesting step, particularly thanks to the reduction in the cost of the equipment that have made their adoption affordable and their availability widespread. In this work, we present our advances in training lung operations with low-cost virtual reality simulation environments.
