Training of medical staff on minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is an area where new effective training methods are needed. We have studied stent grafting, a type of MIS, which is used to treat abdominal aortic aneurysm. Our analysis revealed that this procedure requires a range of motor, perceptual and cognitive skills. In this paper, we present a training environment that could be used to acquire these skills. Our proposed solution differs from the usual VR solutions by operating within the World Wide Web as an environment for our system. This paper discusses how our solution covers the training skills and presents the results of an appraisal process, which we conducted to evaluate our solution.
