Advancing Health Education with 3D Printing and Virtual Reality
3D models and mixed reality (XR) simulations in healthcare serve multiple purposes, enhancing education, assessment, training, research, and patient safety. They improve teaching, clinical competence, and communication among healthcare professionals, simplifying complex healthcare systems. We developed the RadioAnatomical Interactive Library (RAIL): Based on MRI/CT data from various body parts, including challenging and pathological cases, we designed a comprehensive library that offers 3D regional systematic views and interactions with of 3d models of human body
