High-Fidelity Simulation for Skull Base Surgery Enabled by Virtual Dura Mater Construction
This novel technique enables reproducible 3D construction of the virtual dura mater, significantly improving the accuracy of skull base surgery simulations. It provides a valuable educational and decision-making tool, particularly for less-experienced neurosurgeons, bridging the gap toward expert-level surgical planning.
