Simulation and planning of surgery using a virtual reality model is becoming common with advances in computer technology. In this study, we conducted a literature search to find trends in virtual simulation of surgery for brain tumors. A MEDLINE search for “neurosurgery AND (simulation OR virtual reality)” retrieved a total of 1,298 articles published in the past 10 years. After eliminating studies designed solely for education and training purposes, 28 articles about the clinical application remained. The finding that the vast majority of the articles were about education and training rather than clinical applications suggests that several issues need be addressed for clinical application of surgical simulation. In addition, 10 of the 28 articles were from Japanese groups. In general, the 28 articles demonstrated clinical benefits of virtual surgical simulation. Simulation was particularly useful in better understanding complicated spatial relations of anatomical landmarks and in examining surgical approaches. In some studies, Virtual reality models were used on either surgical navigation system or augmented reality technology, which projects virtual reality images onto the operating field. Reported problems were difficulties in standardized, objective evaluation of surgical simulation systems; inability to respond to tissue deformation caused by surgical maneuvers; absence of the system functionality to reflect features of tissue (e.g., hardness and adhesion); and many problems with image processing. The amount of description about image processing tended to be insufficient, indicating that the level of evidence, risk of bias, precision, and reproducibility need to be addressed for further advances and ultimately for full clinical application.

“…However, the high risk of acting in the field poses challenges for particularly prospective pilots as the probability of making mistakes might lead a disastrous accident. Serious thought, thus, has been given to the use of simulation in aviation training as a simulation, like a flight simulator, is a computer-generated imitation of the genuine thing (Lee, 2017). It helps trainees to experience real lifelike scenarios in the school environment.…”

Flying is costly, time-consuming, dependent on weather and maintenance, and sometimes simply does not match with schedules well. When flying a real aircraft is not a feasible or even preferable for one reason or another, a flight simulator could be remedy. Using a flight simulator to improve ab-initio pilots’ knowledge and abilities may make their flying experience more effective and enjoyable. In this respect, this study aims to enhance aviation training through simulation-based learning and develop an understanding of how prospective pilots perceive the innovative approach of simulation integration in Aviation English courses. The X-Plane version 11 was used in conjunction with an introductory course in Aviation English and provided a substitute for an actual flight test experience at an aeronautical university. The sampling consisted of 20 tertiary level students enrolled in the Aviation English course. After the intervention, randomly selected 7 students were interviewed to gain insights into their perceptions about the use of simulation.

“…Multiple software tools are available for producing virtual 3D models reconstructed from patient imaging. 12,13 However, these products are generally of low resolution, can only display images of a particular vendor, are difficult to manipulate, and are not designed to meet the specific needs of collaborative imaging review. An immersive 3D digital display software, called Cardiac Review 3D (Indicated LLC, Pennsauken, New Jersey), was developed that has the ability to interactively display patient-specific 3D digital heart models on a tablet device, which can be easily used at the clinical bedside.…”
