Abstract
Minimally invasive surgery was developed as a necessity to improve the quality of life after surgical interventions, to decrease the costs of hospitalization and to shorten recovery of the patient. Rapid development and the growing complexity of minimally invasive surgery are arguments for implementing a comprehensive training method to acquire special technical skills. The paper presents the development of an training platform for hepatic minimally invasive surgery using parallel robots, which focuses on two important aspects: the training of surgeons in laparoscopic liver surgery and the possibility of interactive pre-planning of the surgical procedure in a virtual environment.
