3D technology has a great potential in simulated surgical training. However, the validity of this technology and strong evidence for its beneficial effects in surgical training is lacking. Further work on validation of 3D technology and assessment tools is needed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
