DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Project Summary Hands-on training is a widely accepted methodology for training. This is especially true for learning clinical procedures as they can be complicated and difficult to master without proper training. Virtual Reality (VR) based training systems can be highly successful in training operators because they can be accessed anytime anywhere as a refresher without the need for a trainer, can simulate various scenarios, can objectively monitor a trainee's performance and provide feedback. Yantric Inc proposes to develop a comprehensive hands-on virtual reality based system for clinical education and training, which is a priority for the National Center for Research Resources (NCRR). In this phase I effort, we will develop a central venous catheter insertion trainer with ultrasound guidance as these procedures are being increasingly performed in a wide variety of scenarios. Yantric has vast experience in developing medical simulation systems and we will take full advantage of our existing hardware and software architecture for the design and development of this system. At the end of this Phase I effort the system will consist of the following key components. (1) A medical simulation and training system for the infraclavicular central venous catheter insertion procedure with ultrasound guidance. (2) General user interface and didactic content presentation: Browser based, developed with HTML / CSS, with support for didactic content presentation. (3) 3D Anatomical Viewer and Interactive simulation application (4) A customized box containing a haptic interface that allows the user to insert real instruments, including needles, guide wires and catheters into the device. (5) An ultrasound simulation module, integrated with a 6DOF position and orientation sensor embedded within a mock ultrasound probe. In terms of commercial potential, there is a large demand for the proposed VR based central venous catheter insertion procedure. There is an increasing number of such procedures being performed by surgeons and interventional radiologists and is a complex enough procedure that there is a strong demand for a good training simulator. Once our training system is developed it can be installed en masse at educational facilities, medical institutions, hospitals, urgent care or health care centers, clinics, laboratories, and radiology centers.

描述（由申请人提供）：项目摘要动手培训是一种广泛接受的培训方法。对于学习临床程序尤其如此，因为它们可能很复杂，没有适当的培训很难掌握。基于虚拟现实（VR）的培训系统在培训操作员方面可以非常成功，因为它们可以随时随地作为复习而不需要教练，可以模拟各种场景，可以客观地监控受训者的表现并提供反馈。Yantric公司提议开发一个全面的基于虚拟现实的临床教育和培训系统，这是国家研究资源中心（NCRR）的优先事项。在第一阶段的工作中，我们将开发一个超声引导的中心静脉导管插入训练器，因为这些程序越来越多地在各种各样的情况下进行。Yantric在开发医疗模拟系统方面拥有丰富的经验，我们将充分利用我们现有的硬件和软件架构来设计和开发该系统。在第一阶段工作结束时，该系统将由以下关键组成部分组成。(1)超声引导下锁骨下中心静脉导管插入手术的医学模拟和培训系统。(2)通用用户界面和教学内容演示：基于浏览器，使用HTML / CSS开发，支持教学内容演示。(3)3D解剖查看器和交互式模拟应用程序（4）包含触觉界面的定制盒，允许用户将真实的器械（包括针头、导丝和导管）插入器械。(5)一种超声模拟模块，与嵌入在模拟超声探头内的6DOF位置和取向传感器集成。就商业潜力而言，对所提出的基于VR的中心静脉导管插入程序有很大的需求。外科医生和介入放射科医生正在进行越来越多的这种手术，并且这种手术足够复杂，因此强烈需要良好的训练模拟器。一旦我们的培训系统开发出来，它可以安装在教育机构，医疗机构，医院，紧急护理或医疗保健中心，诊所，实验室和放射中心。
