Brain surgery training from an avatar
August 2023--Cambridge, Mass.--Benjamin Warf, a renowned neurosurgeon at Boston Children’s Hospital, demonstrates a technique in virtual reality. Those techniques include a procedure to treat infant hydrocephalus that was pioneered by Warf, the director of neonatal and congenital neurosurgery at Boston Children’s Hospital. In the synchronous mode, Warf operates his avatar from a distance in real time while medical residents in Brazil watch, interact, and learn in a 3D environment.
