Abstract:


    One of the most difficult aspects of medical training is the ability to accurately simulate real world conditions. This paper will address one solution for training students in the use of an endovaginal ultrasound. Due to the nature of the procedure, precautions must be taken to minimize discomfort to the patient. By developing a virtual training system, these and other issues can more than adequately be addressed.
