According to Reuters, a study carried out by the Advanced Medical Technology Institute at Beth Israel states that surgeons could perform better and with fewer errors if they enjoy a quick gaming session (approximately for twenty minutes) before entering the operation theatre.

More than 300 medical professionals have engaged in the 20-minute sessions of Sega's Super Monkey Ball before some rudimentary surgical drills. A surgery that use cameras and other slender instruments. Researchers have found out that doctors who have played the games complete the total procedure in 11 seconds faster than those doctors who have not participated in the drills.
