Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the outcome of Augmented reality technology in the recognizing of oral and maxillofacial anatomy.Methods:This study was conducted on the undergraduate students in Peking University School of Stomatology who were learning oral and maxillofacial anatomy.The image da-ta were selected according to the experiment content,and the important blood vessels and bone tissue structures,such as upper and lower jaws,neck arteries and veins were reconstructed in 3D(3-dimension-al)by digital software to generate experiment models,and the reconstructed models were encrypted and stored in the cloud.The QR(quick response)code corresponding to the 3D model was scanned by a net-worked mobile device to obtain augmented reality images to assist experimenters in teaching and subjects in recognizing.Augmented reality technology was applied in both the theoretical explanation and cadaveric dissection respectively.Subjects'feedback was collected in the form of a post-class question-naire to evaluate the effectiveness of augmented reality technology-assisted recognizing.Results:In the study,83 undergraduate students were included as subjects in this study.Augmented reality technology could be successfully applied in the recognizing of oral and maxillofacial anatomy.All the subjects could scan the QR code through a connected mobile device to get the 3D anatomy model from the cloud,and zoom in/out/rotate the model on the mobile.Augmented reality technology could provide personalized 3D model,based on learners'needs and abilities.The results of likert scale showed that augmented reality technology was highly recognized by the students(9.19 points),and got high scores in terms of forming a three-dimensional sense and stimulating the enthusiasm for learning(9.01 and 8.85 points respective-ly).Conclusion:Augmented reality technology can realize the three-dimensional visualization of impor-tant structures of oral and maxillofacial anatomy and stimulate students'enthusiasm for learning.Be-sides,it can assist students in building three-dimensional space imagination of the anatomy of oral and maxillofacial area.The application of augmented reality technology achieves favorable effect in the recog-nizing of oral and maxillofacial anatomy.
