  1. 1. THE ROLE OF VISUAL-SPATIAL ABILITY AND WORKING MEMORY IN IMAGE GUIDED SIMULATOR PERFORMANCE

    Författare :Pehr Andersson; Greg Neely; Håkan Alm; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; Psykologi; Psychology; psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Numerous studies have analyzed the critical factors for training in surgical endoscopy to ensure high performance and increased patient safety. There are, however, surprisingly few studies that focus on the role of cognitive abilities, especially considering the fact that an estimated 50% of allmedical errors that lead to permanent disability and death are the result of cognitive failures (Gawande, Zinner, Studdert & Biennen, 2003).

  2. 2. Human factors in image guided surgical simulator training : components, visual-spatial and haptic aspects

    Författare :Pär Ström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Image guided surgery; virtual reality; simulation; simulator training; skill acquisition; performance; components; visual-spatial ability; haptic feedback;

    Sammanfattning : New image-guided surgical techniques such as arthroscopy and laparoscopy are difficult to learn and master. To handle these techniques, there seems to be a need for higher-level abilities such as visual-spatial abilities. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Simulation supported training in oral radiology : methods and impact on interpretative skill

    Författare :Tore Nilsson; Jan Ahlqvist; Martin Rydmark; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Virtual reality; simulation; simulator; radiology; radiography; learning; skill acquisition; visual-spatial ability; parallax; Radiology; Radiologi; odontologi; Odontology;

    Sammanfattning : Simulation is an important tool when training is hazardous, time consuming, or expensive. Simulation can also be used to enhance reality by adding features normally not available in the real world. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Rytmens estetik, formens kraft

    Författare :Lena Hopsch; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Visual spatial rhythm; force; dramaturgy; temporal rhythm; configuration; space; bodily kinesthetic experience; kinetic rhythm; balance; room; movement; direction; dynamic rhythm;

    Sammanfattning : We meet rhythm as a concept for composition within all forms of art. In this thesis I discuss visual and spatial rhythms. In my research I have reflected about how one via rhythmisation can build up the feeling of a work’s internal movement. LÄS MER

  5. 5. The next level : video gaming, cognition and motivation in surgical simulator training

    Författare :Marcus Schlickum; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Image guided surgery uses small incisions or existing entry ports of the body in order to decrease surgical trauma which will hopefully lead to less infections, complications and number of days needed in the hospital. It is associated with great difficulties and a steep learning curve due to several reasons such as inverted movements and 2D representation of the operating area. LÄS MER
