Introduction: The Rise of AR in Medical Training
Augmented Reality (AR) is compliments and extends the analog environment by adding information on the perception of objects in the user’s real life. In medical learning, this technology is outstanding as it offers real experience, which can be relied on in real practice without compromising the life of patients. Having been an early adopter of technology and medical research, Europe is experiencing increased use of AR. AR becomes a powerful tool for businesses that promote solutions for medical facilities, educational establishments and hospitals, as it allows to set up unique and specific contextual solutions.
Benefits of AR in Medical Training
1. Enhanced Learning Outcomes
Through the use of AR, medical trainees are able to view the aspects or results of a practicing situation in three dimensions. For example, a didactic demonstration where students can learn anatomy where they can rotate a human body and view the inner organs and the systems. This, in turn, helps in explaining complex structures and can do so without have to go through bulky text books or even cadavers.
2. Safe Practice Environments
In this area, using AR, the medical personnel can rehearse operations and the like in safety. The mistake made in these simulations does not harm patients, which makes it appropriate to practice with this method and build confidence.
3. Cost Efficiency
AR training minimizes the use of cadavers, medical equipment, or small surgical theaters during the actual training practice. In the long run, this results to massive savings for the medical institutions and the training facilities.
4. Customization and Scalability
AR applications may depend on the specialization of a medical field ranging from cardiovascular to orthopedic. Also, they are flexible, along with the fact they can be used for one learner, a group of learners or even an organization.
