RTsafe has allowed surgeons to practice precise, high-risk brain surgeries on Personalized PseudoPatient models. The model is created through a 3D-printing from a CT scan of the patient's head, brain, and tumor
Any surgery involving the brain requires complete accuracy -- least there be permanent damage like disrupted speech or paralysis. As medical science advances, more accurate methods are being developed for personalized care such as the Personalized PseudoPatient model. According to RTsafe's website, “As radiation therapy becomes even more customizable to each individual patient, the complexities of the supporting treatment planning system and the dose delivery system increase." This innovation will allow surgeons to have a more comprehensive understanding of the patient's brain through a simulation practice.
As more innovative medical tools are developed, we can expect the accuracy of medicine to increase.
