Abstract
A transoral robotic surgery (TORS) simulator system includes a three-dimensional human head model having an oral cavity made of a synthetic material. The oral cavity has a mandible structure and a simulated human tongue and/or a simulated human tonsil. The simulated human tongue and/or the simulated human tonsil are made from a silicone material. The simulator system also includes artificial tissue(s) attached within the oral cavity, the artificial tissue being formed to mimic a biological tissue, whether cancerous (e.g., a tumor) or otherwise. The simulator system also includes a marker material present on and/or within the artificial tissue; the marker material allows a user of the simulator system to visually differentiate between the artificial tissue and synthetic material of the oral cavity.
