Minimal  Invasive Training  Lab  2 is  specifically  design  for  minimal  invasive  surgical  training. In  some minimally  invasive  procedures,  special  surgical  tools  or  instruments  are  inserted  through  other  small  incisions. The surgeon uses these to explore, remove, or repair a problem inside the body. There are many  different types of endoscopes. Some have tiny surgery tools on the end. Some are flexible, while others are stiff. Minimal Invasive Training Lab 2 are the extension room for minimal invasive surgical training for clinician, the simulators and equipment in this lab differ from the MIS LAB 1.

The kind of endoscope used depends on the surgery, and might have a different name. For example:

• Colonoscope — for procedures done inside the colon (such as a colonoscopy)
• Laparoscope — for surgeries inside the belly (laparoscopic surgery)
• Thoracoscope — for procedures in the chest (thoracoscopic surgery)

Sometimes during minimally invasive surgery, the surgeon might have to switch to a traditional surgery after looking inside the body. This can happen if the problem is different from what the surgeon expected.
