Abstract

Individuals who are interested in using technology to promote education and quality assurance in endoscopy may turn to aviation and driver's test simulation for guidance. Of course the forces driving the innovation and the regulation governing these fields are entirely different from the ones faced in endoscopy. However, some of the general principles of how simulators can enhance training and how their strengths can be put to optimal use are quite pertinent to those individuals interested in the ongoing evolution of endoscopy simulation.
