Virtual reality for brain surgery planning and training
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study uses virtual reality to help doctors plan, practice, and explain brain surgeries. It may help you understand your procedure better and help your surgical team prepare.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a brain scan showing a problem inside your skull.
- You are able to give written permission, or someone legally can for you.
- You can understand and answer questions for the study.

This trial uses virtual reality to help you better understand your upcoming brain surgery, such as for an aneurysm, abnormal blood vessels, or a tumor. It aims to improve how information is given before surgery.
This trial uses your CT scan to build a virtual reality surgical platform. It may help doctors practice surgeries in a safe, simulated environment.
This pilot study tests whether a virtual reality (VR) headset can be used safely while you have certain types of surgery while you are awake or lightly sedated with local numbing. The goal is to see if VR can fit into surgery care for appropriate patients.
This trial tests if using virtual reality (VR) brain training before surgery can help protect memory and thinking skills in older adults with small vessel disease in the brain. If you are 60 or older, have this condition, and are having non-heart, non-brain surgery under general anesthesia, this study may be for you.
This trial uses virtual reality to help doctors practice spine procedures. It may improve surgical planning and education.
This trial tests if virtual reality (VR) cognitive training before surgery can help prevent postoperative delirium (sudden confusion) in older adults with cerebral small vessel disease (a condition affecting small blood vessels in the brain). If you're 65 or older, have this brain condition, and are having non-cardiac surgery, you may be eligible.
