Arthroscopy Training for Residents: Overcoming the Steep Curve
Arthroscopy during residency is one of the steepest learning curves in orthopedic surgery. The technical challenges include mastering the use of angled lenses, interpreting 3D structures on a 2D screen, and handling instruments with precision. Traditional hands-on training with cadaver labs is time-consuming and often limited. Many residents experience slow and unpredictable progress due to intermittent opportunities to practice in the operating room. Virtual reality simulation offers a breakthrough by providing a safe, repeatable learning environment where residents can build skills and confidence efficiently—without the need for costly equipment or cadaver availability.
IMPACT Consortium: Elevating Residency Training with Technology, Data, and Collaboration
The IMPACT Initiative unites residency programs, educators, and technology partners to transform orthopedic surgical training. By integrating virtual reality, data-driven insights, and collaboration, IMPACT ensures residents gain structured practice, faculty mentorship is optimized, and patient care outcomes improve.
Virtual Reality Orthopedic Trauma Training: FractureLab™ with Live Fluoroscopy & Case Authoring
Dr. Lohre never set out to be exceptional. He just wanted to be ready. When he began his residency in
orthopedic surgery, he quickly realized that the operating room (OR) wasn’t just where cases were
done—it was where careers were made. While others may have leaned on research papers or academic
accolades, Dr. Lohre focused on something more foundational: preparation.

How Virtual Reality is Transforming Faculty Teaching Effectiveness at the WVU Orthopedic Residency Program
Academic orthopedic surgeons are under increasing pressure to preserve case efficiency while also delivering meaningful operative education. Shrinking OR time, rising patient volumes, and the growing complexity of surgical care have made it harder than ever to balance education with performance. Traditional teaching methods, dependent on real-time instruction, are struggling to keep pace with today’s constraints.
