Medical combined with VR technology and innovative treatment

When it comes to virtual reality (VR), many people are familiar with the novelty entertainment experience, but the application potential of VR technology is far more than that. When virtual reality is combined with health care, patients suffering from illness will benefit.

When God uses a lifelong joke to open a fate with us, virtual reality brings a glimmer of hope to people. Recently, a research report published by the British Science Report showed that through virtual reality training and brain control robot science, some patients who have suffered from spinal cord injury have made breakthroughs in mobility and perception.

During the research, participants were immersed in a virtual reality environment, using a mechanical exoskeleton controlled by the brain to help restore lower body movements. Seven of the eight patients enrolled in the study were completely paralyzed below the spinal cord. However, after 12 months of rehabilitation, all patients had spontaneous muscle function recovery and felt both tactile and painful. In addition, the patient's bladder and intestinal control ability has also recovered, and cardiovascular function has also been enhanced. Among them, four patients who were previously diagnosed as completely paralyzed have now been "upgraded" to incomplete paraplegia.

In addition to bringing benefits to the patient's recovery life, virtual reality also opens the door for doctors to work. According to the US Consumer News and Business Channel, Dr. Hilling Tef, a well-known radon expert from Beverly Hills, California, used virtual reality technology to broadcast hernia surgery. Virtual reality perfectly shows a real surgical scene, giving the audience an immersive feel. The use of VR technology to broadcast surgical procedures will change the form of surgical education, and also help to achieve the sharing of medical surgical information.

In addition, surgeons can observe lesions from multiple angles through virtual reality equipment, gain insight into the situation, determine potential risks, and prepare for complex high-risk surgery.

Virtual reality also creates a new situation for psychotherapy. In April of this year, Deutsche Bank released the latest VR report, saying that doctors and therapists are trying to treat mental illness by creating a personalized virtual reality situation. For example, the University of Southern California Institute of Innovation and Technology has launched a virtual reality therapy. For the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder, a company in London also uses virtual reality technology to treat phobia. Due to technical limitations, traditional exposure therapies for treating phobia often have obstacles in their operation and may cause the patient to collapse due to uncontrollable operation. With VR technology, such difficulties can be greatly improved. VR exposure therapy will create a highly simulated world for patients with devices such as head-mounted displays, and doctors can adjust the horror of the environment at any time depending on the patient's condition. Sometimes doctors can also immerse themselves in the VR world with patients. Compare with your own situation to give patients the right medicine.

With the rapid development of science and technology, the application prospect of virtual reality in the medical field is infinite.
