Augmented reality in medical education?

Learning in the medical domain is to a large extent workplace learning and involves mastery of complex skills that require performance up to professional standards in the work environment. Since training in this real-life context is not always possible for reasons of safety, costs, or didactics, alternative ways are needed to achieve clinical excellence. Educational technology and more specific...

The Attitude of Library Users at Universities of Medical Sciences towards Augmented Reality Technology

Background and Aim: University libraries must meet certain criteria to enter fourth-generation libraries, one of which is the use of new technologies. The aim of this study was to identify the attitudes of library users of medical universities towards the components of augmented reality (AR) technology. Materials and Methods: The research method was survey and type of study was applied. Quanti...

An Augmented Reality-Based Application for Equipment Maintenance

Augmented Reality (AR) is a technology that merges real-world images with computer-generated virtual objects, superimposes the virtual objects upon the real world, and exhibits them in the view of the users. Mechanical maintenance and repair tasks in industrial environments are prospective domains for AR applications. In this paper a prototype of AR system for training and assisting in maintain...

Interoperative Guidance via Medical Augmented Reality

For the NARVIS project two critical stages of minimal invasive spinal trauma surgery have been identi ed that can be improved with advanced visualization of imaging data. The stages port placement and pedicle screw placement require anatomical imaging data in order give the surgeon su cient information for performing his task. Port placement is a very early stage of the procedure that determine...
