A prospective, randomized, controlled study designed to assess whether digital virtual
reality (VR) models, created from existing CT scans and MRIs, provide surgeons with an
improved understanding of their patients' anatomy, resulting in more efficient operations
(robotic prostatectomy) and improved patient care.
