    The document discusses the Virtual Surgery Environment (VSE) project being developed by the Informatics and Virtual Reality Group in partnership with clinicians from the NHS West Midlands. The VSE allows surgeons to practice complex surgical procedures virtually using a simulation before performing them on real patients. It is focused initially on developing a proof of concept for laparoscopic surgery using virtual models of the liver and liver tumors. The goal is to evaluate how such an environment could help train new surgeons and allow experienced surgeons to practice complicated operations.

    Virtual Surgery Environment Virtual Surgery Environment: Virtual surgery refers to a virtual reality based simulation of surgical procedures including laparoscopic surgery, craniofacial reconstruction, breast reduction,

    gastrointestinal surgery and reconfiguration of musculoskeletal

    geometry. These simulations are used to practise often dangerous surgical procedures without the need for an actual patient. The virtual surgery provides surgeons the capabilities to practise surgery on a virtual patient before performing the real surgery. Informatics and Virtual Reality Group, in partnership with clinicians from the NHS West Midlands, are developing a Virtual Surgery Environment (VSE) for laparoscopic surgery. We are keen to develop with you a proof of concept with models of liver and liver tumours utilising your know how of multi-modal virtual environments. This proof of concept will allow us to have better understanding of the potential of such environments in training of new surgeons as well as for experienced surgeons to practice complicated surgeries. - FT Lam, Consultant Surgeon, Divisional Medical Director for Surgery, University Hospital Coventry and Warwickshire.
