Revolutionizing Medical Education with Extended Reality

3D Organon XR is an advanced extension of the 3D Organon platform, offering a cutting-edge approach to anatomy education through Extended Reality (XR) technologies. Designed for medical professionals, students, and educators, 3D Organon XR provides a comprehensive, immersive, and interactive learning experience by harnessing the power of Virtual Reality (VR).

What is 3D Organon XR?

3D Organon is the leading XR Medical and Healthcare Platform,pioneering education, revolutionizing learning across virtual reality, desktop, tablet, and mobile devices. 3D Organon XR provides an immersive and interactive learning experience. It is designed for medical professionals, students, and educators, offering a comprehensive solution to explore and understand human anatomy more engagingly and effectively.

Why Choose 3D Organon XR?

Enhanced Learning Experience

• Immersive Visualization: Achieve a deeper understanding of anatomy through interactive and engaging 3D models.
• Realistic Training: Benefit from hands-on practice with advanced VR simulations, making learning more effective.

The Department of Physiology, Anatomy, and Genetics (DPAG) at the University of Oxford tested the 3D Organon XR application with third-year medical students, providing an immersive experience to enhance understanding of anatomical structures. Using Oculus Quest 2 headsets, students engaged in self-exploration and interactive virtual lab sessions, leading to positive feedback. Clinical anatomist Dr Sharmila Rajendran noted, “Students responded that the session was engaging and exciting and desired to have more VR sessions in future labs.” This innovative approach demonstrates how 3D Organon breaks complex barriers in anatomy education, making learning more accessible and engaging.

Increased Engagement

• Interactive Features: Engage with dynamic content that makes learning more enjoyable and effective.

Collaborative Opportunities: Facilitate group study and collaborative learning experiences in the Medverse.

As mentioned in the research conducted by Tess Dekker and her colleagues at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, titled “The Effect of Virtual Reality on Learning and Engagement in Anatomy Education,” 3D Organon significantly improves student engagement in several ways:

• Increased Behavioral Engagement: Virtual reality with 3D Organon activated students and stimulated their behavioral engagement, making learning more interactive and enjoyable.
• Positive Emotional Engagement: The immersive nature of 3D Organon positively affected students’ emotional engagement, making the learning process more engaging and less daunting.
• Debatable Cognitive Engagement: While some students used VR sessions primarily to prepare for exams rather than to achieve broader learning objectives, the thematic analysis suggests that VR could contribute to a deeper understanding of anatomical structures.

The study concludes that virtual reality, specifically through 3D Organon, can positively enhance certain aspects of student engagement. Although it should not replace traditional educational activities like dissection or in vivo work groups, it can be a valuable addition to the curriculum. When used voluntarily, supervised by teachers, and combined with activating assignments, 3D Organon can significantly contribute to a deeper understanding and better insight into anatomical structures and their functions.

Cost Efficiency

• Training Programs: VR training programs reduce the need for physical equipment traditionally used in medical training, lowering costs and allowing for repeated practice without additional expenses.
• Surgical Planning: In surgical planning, VR can reduce operation times and improve precision, leading to fewer complications and shorter hospital stays, thus lowering overall healthcare costs.

The financial and educational benefits of VR in medical training. It reports that VR training can lower costs by minimizing the need for cadavers, specialized training equipment, and live patient interactions. Additionally, VR’s ability to provide repeated practice without additional expense contributes to cost savings. While the initial investment in VR technology can be high, the long-term savings are significant due to reduced need for physical materials, simulation labs, and the ability to train multiple students simultaneously.

Advanced Training

• Realistic Simulations: Prepare for real-world applications with interactive modules and realistic VR training.
• Diagnostic Skills: Improve your diagnostic abilities with advanced XR medical imaging tools

A recent University of Michigan study found that 30% of surgeons couldn’t operate independently after residency, highlighting a significant gap in readiness for real-world surgical scenarios. To address this, interactive modules and realistic VR training are essential. These realistic simulations help bridge the gap by providing surgeons with immersive, hands-on experiences that replicate real-world conditions. By practicing in a controlled, virtual environment, surgeons can build the confidence and skills necessary for independent practice.

Global Accessibility

Multi-Language Support: Available in multiple languages, making it accessible to a global audience.
