Course Objectives
A hands-on cadaver workshop with
3D Virtual Reality
The objective of this surgical course is to improve patient care. Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to : Understand orbital anatomy and orbito-zygomatic osteotomies Describe cavernous sinus anatomy and surgical exposure Understand temporal bone anatomy and specify transpetrosal surgical approaches Describe and better understand cerebello-pontine anatomy Review jugular foramen anatomy and surgical exposure

3-Day Course Description
The skull base surgical course features 3D technology and virtual reality to teach neurosurgeons the visuospacial skills required to navigate through various skull base neurosurgical approaches. The courses are given at Anspachs state-of-the-art surgical laboratory where each surgeon will work at a 3D interactive cadaver work-station. Surgeons can watch live 3D dissections on cadavers and can review the surgical anatomy on 3D interactive models before and during their own dissection. The combination of the 3D virtual reality environment and the cadaveric hands-on dissection will afford the surgeon excellent preoperative training and rehearsal of current, complex approaches in cranial base surgery.
