Clinical Research & Publications
Research with a new level of insight
For over two decades, virtual medical simulators and physiological flow systems have been featured in a variety of publications as a key tool for medical device and procedural research and curriculum development to facilitate medical professionals.

To explore whether simulation-based endovascular training with focus on radiation safety could improve correct behavior without jeopardizing the learning of procedural skills.
Simulator-based teaching for coronary angiography (CA) is an attractive educational tool for medical students to improve their knowledge and skills. Its pedagogical impact has not been fully evaluated yet.
Many aspects of medical training take place on real patients in a live environment thus incurring risk. Apart from the obvious risks to patients there is the issue of X-ray exposure to both staff and trainees. Image quality used during interventional procedures is low to ensure minimum X-ray radiation dose. A virtual interventional system may be used to simulate the interventional cardiology training environment therefore reducing overall risk.
Currently, training in interventional electrophysiology is based on conventional methodologies, and a paucity of data on the usefulness of simulation in this field is available.
