AR glasses aim to train Surgeons' eyes for better kidney stone removal

NCT ID NCT07161024

Summary

This study tested a new training tool for surgeons learning to perform kidney stone surgery. Researchers used augmented reality (AR) glasses to show trainees where an expert surgeon was looking inside a practice kidney model. The goal was to see if this visual guidance, combined with verbal feedback, helped trainees explore the model more completely and find more stones compared to standard training.
