VR medical simulation from Precision OS trains surgeons five times faster


Posted March 1, 2023 by PrecisionOS

Precision OS is a company that has been revolutionizing medical education through the use of virtual reality and Unreal Engine.
 
Dr. Danny P. Goel, CEO of Precision OS and an orthopedic surgeon, is on a mission to change the way we think about surgical education. According to Dr. Goel, the traditional methods of learning on plastic models or cadavers are outdated and no longer sufficient to prepare surgeons for the challenges they may face in the operating room.

Medical textbooks and plastic models may show an idealized representation of the human body, but in reality, the body is complex and varies greatly from patient to patient. Cadaver labs, lectures, and on-the-job training have been the traditional methods for educating healthcare providers, but these methods can take months to become proficient and do not expose them to every possible scenario they may encounter during a procedure.

Precision OS's virtual reality platform provides a more realistic and comprehensive approach to surgical education. By allowing surgeons to practice in a virtual environment with a variety of patient scenarios, they can gain valuable experience and expertise faster and more efficiently than traditional methods.

Dr. Goel's vision is to challenge the 400-year-old dogma of surgical education and revolutionize the way we train healthcare providers, ultimately improving patient outcomes and transforming the healthcare industry.
