TY  - CHAP
AB - This chapter summarises the increasingly important role that simulation has to play in the training of surgeons in minimal access surgery. This chapter defines commonly encountered terms from the simulation literature, describes the relevance of simulation to modern surgical practice, examines the evidence for and against the different types of simulators currently used in surgical simulation training, and considers the practicalities of adopting such an approach. The chapter concludes with an exploration of potential future directions in a rapidly evolving field.
