            Abstract : 
This paper discusses the integration of Shaders in a Virtual Reality framework named CyberMed, showing how this could enhance the system´s realism by making it possible to include advanced Computer Graphics (CG) techniques. CyberMed´s current and future structures are shown in this paper, emphasizing the new classes, which are responsible for Shader activities and generating some necessary CG functionalities.
