Augmented Reality Applications

Radiology and interventional radiology training has evolved in the last few decades, facilitated by advances in technology [ 1 Scarsbrook A.F. Graham R.N. Perriss R.W. Radiology education: a glimpse into the future. Clin Radiol. 2006; 61: 640-648 Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (41) Google Scholar ]. Increasing availability of web-based educational materials, both free and subscription-based, has allowed access to high-quality educational content [ 2 den Harder A.M. Frijlingh M. Ravesloot C.J. et al. The importance of human-computer interaction in radiology E-learning. J Digit Imaging. 2016; 29: 195-205 Crossref PubMed Scopus (18) Google Scholar ]. In the past few years, there has been a resurgence in the field of immersive and virtual reality (VR), driven by the entertainment and video game industries. Medical specialties are learning how to apply these immersive technologies for surgical skills training, stroke rehabilitation [ 3 Choi Y.H. Ku J. Lim H. et al. Mobile game-based virtual reality rehabilitation program for upper limb dysfunction after ischemic stroke. Restor Neurol Neurosci. 2016; 34: 455-463 PubMed Google Scholar ], and management of obstetrical emergencies [ 4 Jean Dit Gautier E. Bot-Robin V. Libessart A. et al. Design of a serious game for handling obstetrical emergencies. JMIR Serious Games. 2016; 4: e21 Crossref PubMed Scopus (15) Google Scholar ], for example.
