From anatomy to surgery: Effectiveness of virtual simulation adjuvant to traditional methods in the preclinical training of apicoectomy.

Anat Sci Educ

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Oral Diseases & National Center for Stomatology & National Clinical Research Center for Oral Diseases, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.

Anatomy forms the foundation for the training and execution of routine surgical procedures. However, a gap persists in effectively bridging anatomical knowledge with the confident performance of procedures. Virtual simulation (VS) techniques, based on experiential and situated learning theory, hold promise in addressing this challenge.

Elliptical Supercritical Lens for Shaping Sub-Diffractive Transverse Optical Needle.

Nanomaterials (Basel)

January 2023

Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Optical Fiber Sensing and Communications, Institute of Photonics Technology, Jinan University, Guangzhou 510632, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Supercritical lenses can achieve sub-diffraction-limited focal spots for super-resolution imaging, but previous designs were limited to circular shapes.
  • Researchers introduced an elliptical supercritical lens that creates a uniform transverse optical needle with specific dimensions, enhancing focal spot characteristics.
  • This innovative design could benefit applications in line-scanning microscopy and various fields like laser manufacturing and optical manipulation due to its high aspect ratio and improved field intensity.

Objective: The recent development of extended reality technology has attracted interest in medicine. We explored the use of patient-specific virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR) temporal bone models in anatomical teaching, pre-operative surgical planning and intra-operative surgical referencing.

Methods: VR and MR temporal bone models were created and visualized on head-mounted display (HMD) and MR headset respectively, by a novel webservice that allows users to convert computed tomography images to VR and MR images without specific knowledge of programming.
