Medical College of Georgia Selects BreakAway and Pulse!! to Develop Dental Implant Trainer

BreakAway Ltd. announced today that it had been selected by the Medical College of Georgia to develop an immersive, virtual environment to train dental students. The students will guide avatars through the process of assessing patients' physical and emotional readiness to receive  dental implants and then, if appropriate, practice the surgery itself. This is the first application of the Pulse!! training technology that BreakAway licensed earlier this week. "Digital gaming technology is expanding as an essential component in health care education, capitalizing on the cognitive learning process to generate a more comprehensive understanding of vital concepts," said Project Director Dr. Roman M. Cibirka, Medical College of Georgia Vice President for Instruction and Associate Provost. "
