Day 1 of @virtualmedconf did not disappoint. Some great applications in healthcare including the time I spent meditating in a loud room using @TRIPPVR. Hard to describe but worth the experience. Kudos @BrennanSpiegel for an impressive course so far.
Bold prediction: In 20 years, at least a portion of the orthopaedic surgery medical board exam will be done on a virtual reality platform. Yes, the tech is getting that good. Yes, it is moving that fast.

How can #VR boost surgical skills & reduce errors? Join us at #CedarsSinai for #vMed23 where we'll hear from @BCshoulder on "bending the learning curve: a data driven VR platform on enhanced skill & reduced errors." Register by 1/15 for early bird tix: https://t.co/FRO7kmeTru
@kangsta77 Great post. We teach how we were taught as trainees. Considering everyone learns differently, a personalized and less standardized methodology should be introduced. We should also receive training on how modern educational methods can fill in the gaps. #orthotwitter
@ChrisGraysonMD1 Great post and I feel there are several combined skills to consider. The first is what viscosity to start inserting the cement, then the actual technique followed by the stress of inserting the implant (and not dropping it) before it cures.
We've used virtual reality technology to help prepare and train our surgeons of the future.
The simulation technology allows trainees to practice and develop their skills in a safe environment before they go into a real operating theatre.
