Abstract

Metaverse in Healthcare/Medical education has the potential to be an interactive, immersive, and recreational experience tailored to every individual. It can provide new opportunities for healthcare providers to interact with patients in ways that are more intimate. It could for example as walking through a three-dimensional model of the human body with patients, discussing diagnoses and treatments. This would allow providers to simulate the effect of a proposed treatment on the patient’s body before it is applied, creating a more personal and informative experience compared to what is currently possible with two-dimensional images on a screen. This paper focuses on the methods that could be leveraged for revolutionizing the medical education and training using metaverse.
