Medical VR is a way to utilize virtual reality technology in the medical field. Through VR technology, medical practitioners can simulate the in vivo environment or medical equipment, allowing patients or doctors to perform medical operations and experiments in the virtual world, thus improving medical efficiency and accuracy. Medical VR technology has been applied to surgical operation skill training, rehabilitation therapy, pain treatment, pathology education, etc., and has become a powerful tool to promote clinical medical progress.
The advantage of medical VR technology is that it is highly entangled with the human body. In the process of medical diagnosis and treatment, doctors need to make detailed observations and judgments on the patient's body. Using VR technology, doctors can display and simulate the patient's physical condition in a virtual reality environment to more accurately analyze and diagnose the condition, provide a more customized and personalized treatment plan, and improve the patient's treatment outcome.
While medical VR technology offers great potential, it currently faces a number of challenges. For example, medical VR technology is costly due to the complexity of medical equipment and software; furthermore, uneven levels of VR technology and technical failures may affect the experience of doctors and patients. Therefore, further technical research and development and improvement are needed to make medical VR technology more practical, safe and easy to use.
