| Research Abstract |
We completed a novel virtual-reality neurosurgical simulation system with visual, sensual, and intuitional realism by applying the advanced 3-D technologies. This system has been already used in presurgical evaluation for neurosurgical diseases, such as brain tumors, and the accumulated data have been also used in the aim of education for medical students and young trainee. In the simulation method, we first create the CG data from analyses of CT and MRI and then perform virtual-reality simulation on the data using a specific haptic tool. We also established producing the color plaster model based on the CG data for performing the virtual surgery.
