Donika Testimonial | Surgeons Lab

4D Simulator has excellent potential to contribute significantly to neurosurgical training, case preparation, and patient safety in the future and I am excited to follow the further development.

Markus K.H. Wiedmann
Senior consultant and Director of Residency program, Norway

The 4D simulation allowed me to experience what it means to visualize the aneurysm properly, prepare a good approach, choose the right clip.

Dr David testimonial | Surgeons Lab

The simulator simulates the clip slippage and also the force, it helps to understand what we are actually doing during surgery and why each step is done so. Every detail and attitude in the simulator will improve the learning curve. So, for me, it’s very helpful to fully understand the surgical technical aspect much better. The simulator gives an opportunity to have much and much deeper insight into the surgery itself and at various stages in the career.

David Zhang
Resident Doctor, Switzerland

This simulator is superior to the others I have tried before. The difficulty level is not the same in every model. So, you can have your training from beginner level to intermediate and expert level. The simulator will definitely be preferred for future surgeries that I will attend and assist. I will be very happy to have some training with the simulator.
