Medical learning device based on integrating physical and virtual reality with the aim of studying and simulating surgical approaches at anatomical locations

System for simulating the movement, morphology, surgical approaches, positioning, and movement in three-dimensional space of an anatomical part of the human body, including:

• a three-dimensional physical module for representing a delimited volume of an anatomical part of the human body comprising a container that defines the volume, comprising a plurality of internal interchangeable anatomical elements, the container having an opening representing a predetermined surgical access path for operating within the anatomical part included in the container;
• a support movable in three dimensions to position and orientate the container in three-dimensional space;
• a digital image processing system;
• at least one marker associated with and positioned on the container and/or on the anatomical elements, each of the at least one marker being suitable for identifying the position in three-dimensional space and one or more characteristics of the container or of the associated anatomical part and transmitting the information on the position and on the one or more characteristics to the digital image processing system;
• an image acquisition system suitable for capturing the image of the container, the anatomical elements and the at least one marker and transmitting them to the digital image processing system,
• the image processing system being adapted to integrate the information received from the at least one marker and from the image acquisition system with additional, virtual elements so as to generate an augmented reality view which includes anatomical volumes and layers which complete the partial physical representation of the anatomical part and to represent said view on a monitor.
