Abstract
Rapid development of the medical field, the expanding knowledge base and new technologies require continuing medical education to achieve life long learning and to keep the surgeons up to date. Consequently, specific training is necessary to guarantee qualification of the surgeons. To overcome the current drawbacks of traditional training systems (on-the-job training, plastic models etc.) for laparoscopy/hysteroscopy an intelligent adaptable training environment has been realized using virtual reality (VR), multimedia (MM) technology, and intelligent tutoring systems (ITS). The LAHYSTOTRAIN training system is discussed.
