Computer Assisted Surgical Educational System Using Virtual Reality

Abstract

This paper describes a computer assisted surgical educational system using VR (virtual reality). We made a model to represent bleeding and 3D anatomical human body model to be observed using Unity virtual space. Three able-bodied experimental subjects tested the system with each model. From the experimental results of the bleeding model, we were able to confirm that the blood comes from a cut when we touch any part of the model with a scalpel, surgical knife. From those of the human body model, it was found that we can observe the 3D anatomical human body model from various angles in VR development environment.
