Emerging Clinical Applications of Medical Extended Reality (MXR)
In person: 21 February 2022 • 4:30 PM - 5:15 PM PST 
Abstract
With the increased availability of extended reality (XR) devices in the marketplace, there has been a rapid development of medical XR applications spanning from education, training, rehabilitation, pre-procedural planning, and intra-procedural use. We will explore various use case to understand the importance of technology-use case matches and focus on intra-procedural use cases which generally have the highest risk to patient and medical provider but may have the most sizable impact on benefit to patient and procedure.
