The findings of the study indicated that 11 cases (48%)
have used virtual education technology for laparoscopic surgery training. Using virtual reality has improved learning in 17 (74%) studies.
The use of VR surgical simulation to reach specific target criteria significantly improved the OR performance of residents
during laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Virtual reality increased both procedural accuracy and the completion proportion compared with a technique guide in medical students. Based on our findings, virtual reality may help residents learn the procedural workflow and movements required to perform surgical procedures.

when investigating the impact of mediated
experiences on cognition.
The researchers found that people remember information better if it is presented to them in a virtual environment.
