Abstract

Background: The Fundamentals of Laparoscopic Surgery (FLS) trainer box is now established as a standard for evaluating minimally invasive surgical skills. A particularly simple task in this trainer box is the peg transfer task which is aimed at testing the surgeon's bimanual dexterity, hand-eye coordination, speed, and precision. The Virtual Basic Laparoscopic Skill Trainer (VBLaST
