Aims and objectives
The European School of Urology (ESU) and the EAU Robotic Urology Section (ERUS) offer an intensive handson
training course. We will provide training using simulators. The main aims of this 90 minutes course are:
improving the participants´ control-skills and hand-eye-coordination, as well as an objective benchmarking
of console performance and an introduction into standardized surgical steps in robot-assisted procedures.
Therefore, each course is limited to the small number of 6 participants, to facilitate an optimal training
setting with only 2 participants per faculty.
Registration fee excluding VAT € 25
Supported by an unrestricted educational grant from INTUITIVE SURGICAL and MIMIC
