Robotic Surgery Simulation for Training - Thursday, May 3rd, 2007

Open House at CESEI (11:00-17:00)

Did you know that Robotic Surgery is coming to Vancouver
General Hospital?
This is the first robotic system in the Province of British Columbia for performing complicated surgery.
Robotic Surgery is a new technology and requires extensive training for surgeons, anesthesiologists and other team members.

Training with a surgical robot is a very expensive proposition. However, the Centre of Excellence for Surgical Education & Innovation (CESEI) has identified a virtual reality technology to enhance the training of surgical teams at a low cost.

CESEI is organizing a demonstration of a state-of-the-art virtual reality technology specifically designed for the Da Vinci Robot on Thursday, May 3rd, 2007.

CESEI welcomes interestd individuals to attend.
