Sensory and Motor Skill Testing in Neurosurgery Applicants: A Pilot Study Using a Virtual Reality Haptic Neurosurgical Simulator.

BACKGROUND:Manual skill is important for surgeons, but current methods to evaluate sensory-motor skills in applicants to a surgical residency are limited.OBJECTIVE:To develop a method of testing sensory-motor skill using objective and reproducible virtual reality simulation.METHODS:We designed a set
