Comprehensive Healthcare Simulation: Neurosurgery
Description
This book is a practical guide for the use of simulation in neurosurgery, with chapters covering high fidelity simulation, animal models simulation, cadaveric simulation, and virtual reality simulation. Readers are introduced to the different simulation modalities and technologies and are guided on the use of simulation for a variety of learners, including medical students, residents, practicing pediatricians, and health-related professionals. Comprehensive Healthcare Simulation: Neurosurgery is written and edited by leaders in the field and includes dozens of high-quality color surgical illustrations and photographs as well as videos.
This book is part of the Comprehensive Healthcare Simulation Series which provides focused volumes on the use of simulation in a single specialty or on a specific simulation topic, and emphasizing practical considerations and guidance.
Reviews / Votes
"The intended audience is anyone interested in exploring and possibly adopting or developing new ways to enhance our evolving apprenticeship model through the use of simulation. . The ultimate aim of this textbook is to provide an easily accessible platform where residents in training, practicing neurosurgeons, and organized neurosurgery as a whole can review the best evidence and applicability of the role of simulation in neurosurgical training." (Ki-Eun Chang, Operative Neurosurgery, Vol. 17 (1), July, 2019)"The book seeks to shed light on the tools used both in the past and today, and gives a good overview of commercial tools . . I would recommend this book to those who collaborate with neurosurgeons in order to give them better planning and training tools. This book has much to offer for both engineers and computer scientists who have experience working with clinical colleagues and those who have just begun this journey, perhaps as graduate students."
