XR, including AR and VR, is transforming anatomical education by providing interactive 3D models that help students understand spatial relationships and enhance memory recall.
Technological advancements in headsets, spatial mapping, and interaction technology have made XR-powered interactive 3D models possible in medical training.
The benefits of XR in medical training include interactive real-world visualization, enhanced accessibility for remote learners, accessibility when cadavers are unavailable, enhanced learner engagement rates, and better access to rare anatomical structures.
XR's potential to further advance medical education includes real-time use in practice and continued exploration of new use cases, offering significant learning benefits.
