Lockheed Martin Offers Simulator for Sinus Surgery Procedures

摘要

Lockheed Martin has created "Martin," a combination virtual patient and operating room nurse. The surgery simulator helps users gain proficiency in endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS), a specialty that can cause debilitating injury if performed incorrectly. Lockheed Martin Naval Electronics & Surveillance Systems-Akron teamed with Cambridge, Massachusetts-based MedOpps, LLC to market the tabletop device, with the first unit purchased by Montefiore Medical Center in New York City.
