Summary

This study tests a new augmented reality tool that shows trainee surgeons where expert surgeons look during kidney stone surgery. The goal is to help trainees learn to see the entire kidney, which may reduce the need for repeat surgeries. Ten urology residents will use the tool on realistic models (phantoms) to see if it improves their skill and completeness of kidney exploration.
