Abstract

Recent developments have seen acceleration in the development of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technology. Through these developments, the metaverse has emerged. Within the metaverse, users create an avatar to experience an immersive, interactive extended reality. Current front-runners in its implementation are the financial, communication and entertainment sectors. This technology, however, is receiving greater recognition in the medical world, with national and international surgical bodies acknowledging the benefits that VR and the metaverse will have on surgical training and patient care. Its versatility means that we are likely to see VR related technology become intimately woven into the fabric of surgery in the next two decade. In this article, the impact of the metaverse on the surgical field will be discussed.

外科元宇宙
最近,虚拟现实(VR)和增强现实(AR)技术加速发展。通过这些发展,出现了元宇宙。在元宇宙中,用户创建一个化身,体验身临其境的交互式扩展现实。目前,金融、通信和娱乐行业是该技术的领先实施者。然而,这项技术在医学界正得到越来越多的认可,国家和国际外科机构都承认 VR 和元宇宙将为外科培训和病人护理带来益处。它的多功能性意味着,在未来 20 年内,我们很可能会看到 VR 相关技术与外科手术紧密交织在一起。本文将讨论元宇宙对外科领域的影响。
