Abstract
Wet lab sessions during residency play an important role in developing the surgical skills of trainee residents. However, establishing a wet lab requires funds and equipment. Moreover, they might not be accessible to all the residents. The smartphone magnifying lens can magnify the images 8?10 times, sufficient to practice suturing techniques. Hereby, we describe a novel model for resident surgical training using a smartphone.
