What are the implications of VR technology for medicine?

VR has not only focused on the field of computer graphics, it has involved a wider range of fields, such as video conferencing, network technology and distributed computing technology, and has developed towards distributed virtual reality.

VR is the abbreviation of virtual reality, Chinese means virtual reality, the concept was proposed in the early 80s, which specifically refers to a new human-computer interaction created with the help of computers and the latest sensor technology.

Including artificial intelligence, big data, holographic technology and many more.

In the past two years, the hottest is artificial intelligence (AI) and virtual reality (hereinafter referred to as VR), both of which have played a huge, even subversive role in the medical industry.

However, due to technical limitations, it has not yet been popularized on a large scale. However, judging from the current performance, there has been a development that has begun to take shape. Mainly from the following aspects, let's talk in detail about the surprises brought to us by the application of VR technology in medical treatment:

1.Medical Student 2Doctor 3 Patient.

First of all, let's talk about medical students, in the process of training medical students, the most important thing is clinical practice, but the current practice conditions are very few, and the distribution of medical resources in various regions is uneven, and it is difficult for some medical students to have a large number of clinical practice opportunities.

Medical students can directly "see through" the human body through VR, from ** to muscles, to blood vessels, etc., which can be clearly displayed in front of their eyes. In the process of learning anatomy, it is not necessary to observe the corpse by dissecting it, and it can be used many times.

Using VR content to create the hand rock huai section, medical students can conduct surgical experiments in the virtual world, which is more resource-saving. The reproducibility of VR content allows more medical students to accumulate a lot of experience in the virtual world.

The second is doctors, and the availability of VR by doctors is very high, and there are even companies abroad that specialize in brain surgery for patients through VR technology. The human brain is the most complex part of all organs, with such a delicate internal structure that the slightest carelessness can have serious consequences.

VR technology can clearly present the brain in front of the eyes, allowing doctors to see the patient's lesions more clearly, and even simulate surgery in advance, so that the preoperative preparation will be more sufficient. Simulated surgical operations in a virtual environment can also generate holograms to visualize the surgical process.

When the high-end medical team performs the operation, they only need to wear GoPro to carry out VR live broadcast, so that doctors across the country can get the details of the operation in the live broadcast. You don't have to be limited by time and space, you can also record the surgical process and leave it for more doctors to learn and observe jujube cloth in the future.

Interaction xing is very easy to understand from the literal meaning, interaction is communication and interaction, VR technology can allow users to achieve certain information exchange and operational feedback on the environment in a virtual environment, for example, use. VR technical feature 2: multi-perception xing:

Multi-perception XING is a variety of other senses other than vision, such as force, hearing, pain, touch, taste, etc., which may be involved in the application of VR technology due to the different functions of different hardware devices. VR technology feature 3: autonomous xing.

Autonomous XING is also one of the characteristics of VR technology, which is mainly reflected in the performance of following some conventional physical laws in a virtual reality environment, such as in a virtual reality application, where the user pushes an object in virtual reality. VR technology feature four: presence.
