Using VR technology can provide students with medical training in a classroom environment. For example, local anatomical knowledge in books is a flat thing, it is difficult to have a three-dimensional feeling, and medical students through VR anatomy technology, the learning speed will be accelerated, but also reduce the cost of learning. Not only anatomy, but also other biochemical aspects can be simulated through VR technology simulated scenes, virtual reality simulation exercises. In addition, medical students in the hospital internship also through the virtual reality scene training to familiarize with the hospital process, and at the same time can be repeatedly practiced to accelerate the speed of learning.
In addition, doctors can also use VR technology to simulate surgery, thus reducing the risk of surgery. In foreign countries, the application of simulation training in medical treatment is already very common. Doctors will reduce the risk of surgical errors when they operate on patients after simulation training, and this is also a kind of protection for the interests of patients.
On the other hand, as patients are equally concerned about their own conditions and surgical procedures. With VR technology, doctors can accurately show patients the problems created in their heart, brain or joints. Not only that, ARVR technology can also alleviate the worry and fear of patients due to the pain of surgery.
Foreign VR medical companies have a large development in the direction of medical education, clinical applications, psychological rehabilitation, etc., while the domestic mostly focus on VR medical training. However, with the gradual maturation of virtual reality technology, some domestic universities, hospitals and enterprises are also actively promoting the development of the VR + medical field, and have also made some breakthroughs.
