- Students are also able to view digital procedures in the AR environment to see how the procedure is done, and its impact on the patient’s anatomy
- Simulator gives a distinctive “pop” feeling when puncturing the dura during a lumbar puncture procedure
- Durable lumbar tissue insert and duras are longer lasting, increasing life span and keeping on going costs down
