    Study Notes

    VR-Virtual Reality

    • Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) technologies are used in many different areas in the healthcare sector, from education to diagnosis and treatment. Augmented reality is explained as enriching the real-world by the creation of artificial reality and by emulating real images or sounds. Virtual reality, on the other hand, uses computers to create virtual environments, and its contents can be explained as computer-generated images
    • AR and VR technologies interact in remote surgeries, and the first 5G-supported remote brain surgery was performed in Canada in 2019.
    • Another application area where AR and VR technologies are used is applied health education, where AR and VR technologies are used in medical applications on virtual patients with fears such as claustrophobia or fear of flying and in pain control studies.
