Does robotic VR simulator training allow for the transfer of technical surgical skills to the operating room?
Robotic VR simulator training is justified before operating on patients as it allows for skill transfer and predicts operating room performance.
Technical surgical skills acquired through robotic VR simulator training can be transferred to the operating room, and operating room performance seems to be predictable by robotic VR simulator performance. VR training can therefore be justified before operating on patients.
