LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM - Dec 4, 2015 - Touch Surgery Officially The Largest Worldwide Community Of Surgeons Practicing Surgery Virtually

 

Digital Surgical Simulator Touch Surgery collaborates with Experts Surgeons at International Institutions (Stanford, Harvard Yale, Dartmouth, Vanderbilt, Imperial College London,& Others) to Create Surgical Simulations. With more than 600.000 downloads and a constantly growing library of procedures, Touch Surgery plans on becoming the leading surgical learning tool across all platforms.

Touch Surgery today announced the release of their 3D Thoracocentesis simulation. The release marks a giant leap forward in Touch Surgery Technology in being the most realistic surgical simulation available. With the introduction of advanced 3D graphics, the ability to make the wrong decisions, additional interactions, and many other new features.

Touch Surgery 3D is designed to create a more true-to-life simulation experience. In fact, we’ve just released a research paper from Imperial College London stating that Touch Surgery is improving the cognitive performance of a novice, up to the level of an expert surgeon within a few hours of training.

To use the new TS 3D simulation, simply open your app, refresh the library by dragging it down, and launch the "Thoracocentesis” 3D simulation on your iOS device.

Touch Surgery is available for free via any smart device on both iOS and Android platforms. The virtual surgery app was created by surgeons in an effort to increase the quality of surgical training and improve patient outcomes.
