Summary

This study tests special surgical gloves with built-in force sensors to measure how much pressure is used when placing a stent for a brain aneurysm. Doctors and trainees will practice on a realistic 3D-printed model. The goal is to see if the gloves can detect meaningful forces and tell apart experts from beginners, which could improve training and safety.
