Abstract:
As a virtual shared space based on advanced technologies such as virtual reality(VR),augmented reality(AR),mixed reality(MR),artificial intelligence(AI),and 5th generation mobile communication technology,the metaverse has revolutionized all walks of life,including medicine.Extended reality(XR)and AI technologies are gradually becoming one of the mainstream directions of technological development,among which interventional radiology based on imaging data has shown great potential in the field of metaverse medicine.XR technology not only plays a significant role in improving the efficiency and accuracy of interventional diagnosis,but also has multi-dimensional impacts on doctors'clinical skills training,doctor-patient communication,patient education,postoperative rehabilitation,and overall medical development.At present,the construction of metaverse medicine is still in its early stage,and the practitioners engaged in interventional medicine can use XR and AI technology to improve their clinical skills and to enhance the doctor-patient communication ability,thus,to further improve the medical environment and promote the progress of disciplines as well as the comprehensive development of metaverse medicine including interventional diagnosis and treatment.
