[EN VIDÉO] Fanny Burney, the 19th century author who described her own operation without anesthesia
In 1811, the British author Frances Burney was forced to undergo a total removal of the right breast, suffering from a painful and disabling tumor. The anesthesia still not hesitating, the patient is conscious and the pain is perceived in all its intensity. A year later, Frances Burney takes up the pen and tells her sister about her operation.

Before they can perform their first operations on patients, the medical students must first train on corpses. In order to offer an alternative, FundamentalVR launched its platform last year Fundamental Surgery which allows this training to be carried out in virtual reality (VR). The firm has just announced an update which adds improved soft tissue simulation.

The firm has developed its own system of kinesthetic haptic feedback, in other words the feeling of resistance virtual objects. For this, in addition to the classic VR controllers, FundamentalVR offers various surgical tools connected to mechanical arms allowing to train with precision on the different operations.

Virtual reality as a learning tool

The update makes the haptic feedback at the soft tissue level much more realistic, allowing surgeons of ” handle, feel and explore the texture of the’anatomy “. This update is not just for the skin, as it improves the simulations around the skin. spine, as well as for orthopedic and ophthalmological procedures.

The goal is to allow medical students to acquire the right gestures and to train the procedural memory. According to Richard Vincent, PD-G. from FundamentalVR, the firm has provided ” a new level of realism to medical education to the point where the need for training in laboratories, on cadavers or on patients could be eliminated in just a few years ».
