通信和信息技术的新手段和新模式极大地改变了获得外科教育的机会。将互联网信息高速公路引入主流临床实践作为信息共享媒介，为医疗保健专业人员提供了广泛的机会。高速互联网广播允许显示高质量的全屏视频。通过互联网获得外科手术程序已经在当今的继续医学教育中发挥了重要作用，并且无疑将在未来获得越来越多的支持。WebSurg.com，世界虚拟大学，一个基于网络的外科大学，致力于微创腹腔镜手术。使用全新的多媒体数据，电子大学提供了150多个微创手术程序的详细描述和265个手术干预视频。这样的教学工具再现了传统医学院的所有先决条件和要求，结合了世界知名专家关于各种外科专业特定主题和实践提示的多方面观点。随着技术的发展，最近的进步已经使得在手持设备（个人数据/数字助理，也称为PDA、袖珍PC和智能电话）上显示Websurg.com的项目成为可能。将所有这些元素整合到一个独特的世界虚拟大学中，Websurg.com集中体现了一个统一的学术中心的概念，提供由国际专家管理的教学和辅导。互联网无疑有助于科学信息以简单和用户友好的方式在世界范围内传播。
The new means and modalities of communication and information technologies have significantly revolutionized access to surgical education. The introduction of the Internet information highway into mainstream clinical practice as an information sharing medium offers a wide range of opportunities to healthcare professionals. High‐speed Internet broadcasting allows the display of high‐quality full‐screen videos. Access to surgical procedures through the Internet already plays a major role in continuing medical education nowadays and will undoubtedly be gaining grounds in the future. WebSurg.com, the World Virtual University, a web‐based surgical university, is dedicated to minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery. Using brand‐new multimedia data, the electronic university provides thorough descriptions of over 150 procedures in minimal access surgery and 265 videos of surgical interventions. Such a teaching tool recreates all the prerequisites and requirements of a traditional School of Medicine, incorporating the manifold standpoints of world‐renowned experts about specific topics and hands‐on hints in various surgical specialities. Following the evolution of technologies, recent advances have made it possible to display items of Websurg.com on handheld devices (personal data/digital assistance also known as PDAs, Pocket PCs, and smart phones). Integrating all these elements into a unique World Virtual University, Websurg.com epitomizes the concept of a unified academic center providing teaching and tutorials administered by international experts. The Internet assuredly contributes to the worldwide diffusion of scientific information in an easy and user‐friendly way.
