The first is to improve the accuracy of the surgery, and the second is to improve the quality of the surgery, and the third is to improve the quality of the surgery.
One, VR + treatment The biggest feature of VR technology is the reproduction of the environment, and make the environmental scene become visualized and standardized, the environment is the biggest role of people is the psychological effect. Therefore, the current VR technology is most used in psychotherapy. Many psychotherapists and psychiatrists often achieve the purpose of treatment by guiding patients to recall or visualize the scene during the treatment process. Therefore, in the category of psychotherapy, such as disorders, phobias, autism, agoraphobia, intensive phobia, etc. can reach the purpose of treatment through VR technology. But the patient's imagination and recall is difficult to control, so the effect is difficult to assess.
Two, VR + clinical assistance Through VR technology can distract the patient's attention. This helps patients to relieve pressure, which is conducive to the treatment of the condition.
Three, VR + medical training In principle, VR technology is through the deception of vision, visual training coupled with brain neurological information outgoing to achieve the purpose of brain training. Medical training is a practice-heavy discipline, and today's doctor-patient relationship is very tense, not allowed to take patients to practice, many surgical newcomers due to the lack of exercise opportunities is difficult to improve. And VR technology can provide just the right opportunity for medical training.
Of course, there are quite a few problems with VR+medicine at the moment. For example, to let the doctor or by the patient to stay in the virtual environment for a long time, it is easy to occur some physical discomfort symptoms. And although it is said that VR is quite effective in psychotherapy, but due to the relevance of the treatment and the difficulty of VR content production and other issues, this kind of auxiliary treatment method is difficult to promote on a large scale at this stage. Then there is the problem of VR medical content development. China Augmented Reality Industry Alliance or AR Alliance or ARA believes that the medical industry requires rigorous professional knowledge and attitude, so the requirements of VR content have increased accordingly. The accuracy of medical diagnosis requires a high degree of precision, and the modeling of many organs or tissues has to be very precise, so the current VR medical applications are still more of a stop gap between wearing a headset and watching a VR video.
