Virtual reality (VR) is best defined as a technology set that enables individuals to interact successfully with 3D digital datasets in actual environments while utilizing their natural perceptions and abilities. In surgical planning, VR technology enables patients to practice and witness the consequence of surgery before undergoing it, such as breast augmentation and reconstructive craniofacial surgery.
Thus, surgical procedures can be developed and practiced, resulting in clear benefits for both patients and healthcare professionals. In surgical training, gastroenterology learners are offered more advanced simulations for interventional gastroscopy, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, and colonoscopic operations.
A radiological simulation is used to instruct students in cardiac catheterization and embolization by simulating physiological factors and blood circulation in actual time. These virtual reality simulators provide consistent, digital instruction that is frequently conducted without the need for monitoring.
