The Use of Telesurgery Mentoring and Augmented Reality to Teach Arthroscopy.

ABSTRACT: Surgical teaching methods may be enhanced with telesurgery mentoring technology through virtual, visual, and audio interactions in the operating room, irrespective of geographic restrictions. The use of telesurgery mentoring carries the potential for accelerated learning in arthroscopic and surgical education. A telesurgery platform enables the establishment of a global network of surgeons with the goal of bridging gaps in surgical training via an accessible, cost-effective communication pathway. Specifically, such a platform allows a local surgeon to deliver real-time and live virtual assistance to a remote surgeon over a standard internet connection and removes the geographic barriers that prevent the practice of high-quality surgical care, thereby expanding virtual surgical collaboratio
